Abstract
Plaintiff, a minor child, brought a tort action against defendant for enticing her mother to desert her, thereby depriving plaintiff of support, maintenance, and maternal care and affection. The trial court sustained defendant\u27s demurrer. On appeal, held, affirmed. The statutes of the state provide other means of support of the child, and he has no right of action for the deprivation of a parent\u27s love and affection. Nelson v. Richwagen, (Mass. 1950) 95 N.E. (2d) 545
