![Zhongtian [Daily Must-Read] Giving parents red envelopes doesn't count as child support! Court disagrees, ordering compensation of 1.45 million to sister. Lawyer Li Yusheng explains the obligation of support and the apportionment of support costs. 李育昇律師接受中天新聞訪問說明扶養義務與扶養費分擔](https://fdlaw.com.tw/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/parent-support-red-envelope-featured-image-768x432.jpg)
News Link: According to news reports, a dispute arose among family members over the cost of supporting their parents. One party claimed to have given their parents red envelopes (gifts of money), purchased supplements, or incurred related expenses. However, the court ultimately ruled that these expenditures do not necessarily equate to legally mandated support payments. Such cases are quite common in family matters, especially when parents age, require long-term care, or experience increased medical or living expenses. Siblings often argue about "who provides more care," "who pays more," and "whether past red envelopes count as support payments." Attorney Li Yu-sheng of Fidelity Law Firm stated that supporting parents is not merely a matter of morality or kinship; it can also be a concrete legal obligation. When parents age or become unable to support themselves, adult children may, in principle, be required to pay support according to their own financial means…

News Link: According to news reports, the case of celebrities evading military service continues to attract public attention. Energy member Chang Shu-wei, involved in the draft evasion case, admitted to his crime and apologized to the public during his first court appearance. The report indicates that the prosecution initially sought imprisonment, while the defense argued for leniency and probation, citing factors such as the defendant's post-crime attitude, family burdens, and work situation. This type of case has sparked discussion not only because the individuals involved are public figures, but also because it involves issues of fairness in military service, document authenticity, criminal liability, and court sentencing. For the general public, common questions in similar criminal cases include: Does pleading guilty guarantee probation? Does falsifying or using false medical information constitute another crime? How much leeway does the court have after the prosecution's sentencing request? In Taiwan…

If parents cannot reach an agreement on guardianship arrangements for their minor children, the core issue the court truly considers is not who has a higher income or who takes the child first, but rather who should exercise or bear the rights and obligations of the minor children in the best interests of the children. Guardianship cases typically require simultaneously gathering evidence of key care facts, stability of life, parental capacity, support systems, meeting and interaction arrangements, and other relevant evidence, before deciding on an agreement, mediation, or family litigation strategy based on the specific circumstances. This article focuses on quickly summarizing that divorce guardianship is not about snatching the child, but about proving who is better able to care for the child. Many people preparing for divorce are most afraid not of how the property will be divided, but of whether the other party will take the child away. In practice, the more precise legal term for "guardianship" is "the exercise or bearing of the rights and obligations of minor children," that is, who is responsible for the child's living care, education arrangements, medical decisions, household registration and school registration, major decision-making, and daily protection and upbringing…
