CustomersAreNeverRight.com: Sprint Blamed For Something That Isn't Their Fault

Hmmmm... After first reading this story from the consumers point of view I had to see what the opposition had to say about it. What did I find?? Something with horns that smells like poo........

When someone dies their estate handles all their financial affairs and since her son didn't have anyone else his mother was the one left with his debt.

I have attempted to answer the main question here, which is, who is officially responsible for the estate of an ADULT child in the event of their death? This is what I have discovered:

From Answerbag.com

Are parents responsible for the unpaid debt of a deceased adult child?

Nope. Only if the parents cosigned or had their name on the ownership of the debt.

Also from Answerbag.com

If an adult passes away and there is not a will, who is automatically responsible for the unpaid debts of the deceased?

From WikiAnswers.com

Are the parents of a deceased adult child with no estate responsible for paying unpaid debt?

No, if they were not joint debtor's with the deceased they are not responsible for any of his or her debts.

Now, if anyone has an opinion on this please feel free to speak, although, I'd prefer someone to point me in the direction of the actual legalities of this issue.......
