I believe the answer is:

sponsored

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'given support' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both to do with ownership as well as being past participle verbs.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I don't see?

'papa stops boy hurting daughter' is the wordplay.
'papa' becomes 'P' (NATO / phonetic alphabet).
'stops' indicates putting letters inside (stopping can mean blocking a gap).
'boy' becomes 'son' (synonyms).
'hurting daughter' becomes 'sored' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'p' going inside 'son' is 'spon'.
'spon'+'sored'='SPONSORED'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for sponsored that I've seen before include "(Of event) supported financially" , "With backing" .)
