No but it is the decent, ethical and right thing to do. Just put yourself in their position. I'm sure you would like to know too. And they are entitled to their inheritance.
Legally, no. see link below
Their is no age in which a parent is legally obligated to separate his/her opposite sex children. It is just a rumor that is often said.
No. You legally have to be 16 with parent permission. It would be deadly for children.
No. Once a child is legally emancipated, the parent is no longer obligated to pay child support.
It can certainly be done legally. So what did you do that your parents are writing your out of their will?
Morally and ethically yes, but not legally.
Not once they are adults. It is often done to help the child get started in their lives.
Parents are not legally obligated to ever help with college expenses anywhere. Added: If you signed some type of contract obligating you to pay for tuition and room & board, etc, you are obligated until the expiration date of that contract. If no contract was signed, you are not legally obligated to pay anything for your child after they attain their 18th birthday, and they legally become an adult.
Maybe, it depends upon the amount rendered by the government agency and by the obligated parent versus the needs of the children. However, said parent must be the legal adopting parent of the child/children.
It depends on the laws of the specific jurisdiction, but in many cases, parents are only legally obligated to pay child support until the child reaches the age of majority, which is typically 18. Some jurisdictions may require child support to continue while the child is still a dependent, such as through college, but this varies.
There is no such law. The only way a step parent could be obligated for child support in such a situation is if he or she had legally adopted the minor child/children. The Washington State law applies only to a step parent paying support until the final dissolution decree is rendered. Once the divorce is final, the step parent has no further legal financial obligation to non biological children.
No. If he chose to give your adult children money, then that was his decision and you are not obligated to reimburse him for any of it. And to take it a bit further, even if the children were still minor after the divorce and he chose to give them money, you would not be obligated to reimburse him for that, either. Child support money goes to the custodial parent for support of the children, not directly to the children.
