In Alabama, parents are responsible for their children's care and actions up to the age of 18. This also includes any property damage a minor child causes.
Nope, after 15 and 7 months, parents are no longer responsible for their children, except under extreme legal obligations instilled by the Court.
The laws vary from state to state. In most of them 18 is the age of adulthood. At that point the parents have no legal responsibility for their children. There are two where it is 19 (Nebraska and Alabama) and in Washington DC and Mississippi it is 21.
No, they are no longer legally responsible for a child that reaches the age of 18. Once a child reaches the age of majority, they are on their own. There may be a court order that establishes some additional responsibilities for child support and college costs.
It depends partially on the age of the children. If they are not adults, the parents are responsible. If the children are above the age of majority, and not on their parents' insurance, they should be responsible for their own debts.
Generally eighteen. It may be different if you are emancipated or incompetent.
Parents are responsible for their children until they reach the age of majority or are emancipated.
If the child is over age 18, then the parent is not responsible for the child's medical bills. The child is legally responsible for anything that the insurance policy did not pay.

You are considered an adult and capable of signing a contract. Such debt will be your responsibility. That may be modified if your parents have health insurance on you.
The question answers itself. People over the age of 18 are not children. They are adults and as such are responsible for their own debts. Insurance coverage under your policy does not imply legal financial responsibility on your part.
If the child is under age 18, then the parent is responsible for her medical bills. That is not the same as being responsible for providing her health insurance. At this point, (2013), there is not a requirement to have health insurance. If the child is age 18 or older, then the parent is not responsible for her bills. The hospital or physician's office may try to involve you, and encourage you to help her, but legally, the parent would not have the responsibility.
In Texas, a parent is typically no longer responsible for their children once they reach the age of 18, which is the age of majority. At that point, children are considered legal adults and responsible for themselves.
15 years and younger
The deceases "estate" should take care of any medical bills that have gone unpaid. Also Medicare should be paying part of this if the deceased was age 65 or over. Whether or not the hospital can come after family members for this needs to be answered. Surviving family members are not responsible for medical costs of a deceased person unless they entered into a written contract with the care facility.
It depends on the hospital.
