在美国，如果父母拒绝／无法还债，成年子女有可能被起诉付钱

在美国，如果父母拒绝／无法还债，成年子女有可能被起诉付钱。这叫做filial responsibility statute, 全美有36个州的法律支持这一条款。即便你所在的州无此条款（比如纽约州），只要父母所在的州起诉，成年子女依然有责任。

If mon can\'t pay, adult child must

This one\'s going to blow baby boomers\' minds. It concerns a little-known law dating to Elizabethan England suddenly being enforced with gusto in Pennsylvania. The law can force adult children to pay their parents\' health-care costs.

If Mom and Pop can\'t pay, you pay. If they have the money but refuse to pay, you pay. If you don\'t, watch your credit rating sink under the weight of a legal judgment that will haunt you for life.
