| | | | Are children responsible for their parents depts? What is the name of your state? Kansas
I live in Kansas but my questions are pertaining to a person living in Ohio.
If a parent has been living with a child and it is not working out, how can the child get the parent to move out? The parent has no money, no where to live (evicted from former house), is on medicare/medicaid and no one else to help out. The parent has burned a few too many bridges.
Next question.
At what point are children responsible for their parents? Is there a law that says children must provide for their parents? If so, what are the laws?
Thanks for all the help. |

| | | | The situation is complicated from an outsiders standpoint. The parent has burned many bridges with her attitude and demands on family members. She berates the family member she is currently living with. She yells, cusses and belittles every family member in front of this members 9 year old girl. The situation is emotional unsuitable. She does not take responsibility for any problems or situations that occur. Instead of seeking help in a positive way, she demands, threatens and writes very abusive letters to said family members even after they have helped. A nursing home is looking like the best option at this point. Don't get me wrong, the family members have bent over backwards to help her out, but she does not appreciate any of the help they have given her. She does not take there advise on financial matters and has dug herself a pretty big hole. I think she is mentally unstable. How would you go about getting her evaluated? She would not go willingly! I hope this clears up the murky water. |

| | | It sounds to me like you'd have to have her committed basically, but I don't know what that would entail.
If you just want her out of the house, you'd have to go through the formal eviction process. Your local courthouse should have the paperwork and should be able to answer a few questions.

| | | | Thanks for your help. The family members are pursuing nursing home options first, then will regroup to plan B if needed. | |
