Back to home

My grandparents/siblings were the ones who raised me up. Can I refuse to maintain my parents?

We understand that it may be difficult for you to agree to maintain your parents as they may not have discharged their duties as parents during your formative years. However, children are generally expected to maintain their aged parents as long as it is within their means, unless the facts show that they are clearly undeserving of any maintenance.

I understand that my contributions towards maintenance is for life of either party. How do I know if my parent is still alive years forward as we do not communicate at all?
