    There are states with laws regarding passing on debts to children, so not sure why I’m being downvoted.

    Edit: In general, an adult child never inherits their parent’s debt, but there are exceptions for certain debts in certain states. Also, it’s worth noting that debts usually come out of the estate, but in Florida you can be held liable for your parent’s debt up to the value of the property you inherited - so not out of the estate, but out of what the estate gave you. Similar, but not the same.

        Sorry, but you are incorrect.

        In general, what you are saying is mostly accurate, but you cannot say there are no states because there are exceptions.
