Although

Use synonyms

, I strongly agree that they should be legally responsible to do so. First and foremost, from an ethical point of view, it's certainly the responsibility of a child to look after their

when they are not able to look after themselves physically, mentally and financially.

This

is because mothers and fathers have invested a lot of their effort and hard-earned money to ensure their children grew up successful and happy.
