Everything what you have (property, savings, pension...) will be used to pay your expenses. This happens to CF and to breeders as well so why should CF people pay more?

These laws mostly come into effect when the parunts are unable to live on their own,
end up in a nursing home and their assets cannot cover the care costs.

Many of the people in USA end up paying for parents' care, regardless of laws. I remember back in the 90's there was a reference to a "sandwich generation" - people who pay high taxes and pay for all the expenses because they don't qualify for any help due to making too much money.
I wonder who they would tax in Germany under the filial responsibility law, if the kids have no cash, similar to how many young folks are now in the USA.

I guess the state would garnish the adult child's wages by a certain percentage, to help defray the cost. Yurble would know better than me, because she is in the EU.
About 23 states in the USA have filial responsibility laws on the books. The state never used to enforce them, but because of budget issues, states are starting to look at them. I wonder how that works, if the parents live in one state with filial laws, and the adult child lives in a state without such laws. What would the first state do, try to garnish the child's wages? That would cause problems with the state that doesn't have such laws. If the adult child doesn't pay up, would the parent's state try to sue in court for collection, or try to extradite the adult child back to their state to force them to pay up?
It makes for some nasty situations.
