Zhongtian Daily Must-Read: Giving Red Envelopes to Parents Doesn't Count as Support! Court Refuses, Orders Sister to Pay 1.45 Million Yuan; Lawyer Li Yusheng Explains Support Obligations and Support Cost Sharing

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…

How to fight for custody in a divorce? How does the court rule? A lawyer teaches you how to prepare evidence in the best interests of your children.

This article focuses on quickly summarizing that divorce custody is not about taking 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, what people commonly refer to as "custody" is more accurately described in law as "the exercise or burden 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. According to Article 1055 of the Civil Code, when couples divorce, they can first agree that one or both parties will jointly take care of the child. If the two parties cannot reach an agreement, or if the content of the agreement is unfavorable to the child, the court can, at the request of one parent, the competent authority, social welfare institution, or other interested parties, or even ex officio, determine custody. Therefore, divorce custody is not about who argues the loudest, nor is it about who takes the child first. What the court really needs to determine is: who is more capable of caring for the child…
