New laws limited which power of fathers?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Forcing daughters into marriage

The governing concept is the effect of revolutionary legal reforms on family authority and personal choice. Before the Revolution, fathers and other family authorities could exercise strong control over the marriage decisions of daughters, and young women had limited power to challenge such arrangements. Revolutionary reforms promoted the idea that marriage should involve individual consent rather than being imposed solely by patriarchal authority. Thus, option A is correct: new laws restricted a father’s power to force his daughter into marriage. Options B and C describe permissions, not powers that the laws removed. Option D is also unsuitable because making women citizens was a broader political issue and does not identify the specific paternal authority mentioned in the question.
