Filial responsibility laws (filial support laws, filial piety laws) are laws in the United States that impose a duty, usually upon adult children, for the support of their impoverished parents or other relatives. In some cases the duty is extended to other relatives. Such laws may be enforced by governmental or private entities and may be at the state or national level. While most filial responsibility laws contemplate civil enforcement, some include criminal penalties for adult children or close relatives who fail to provide for family members when challenged to do so. The key concept is impoverished, as there is no requirement that the parent be aged. For non-Western societies, the term "filial piety" has been applied to family responsibilities toward elders.

| - Elternunterhalt ist der deutsche Rechtsbegriff für die rechtliche Verpflichtung von Kindern und (indirekt) auch Schwiegerkindern, im Rahmen ihrer finanziellen Möglichkeiten durch Unterhaltszahlungen den Lebensbedarf der (Schwieger-)Eltern zu sichern. Eine vergleichbare Rechtsordnung heißt in Österreich Pflegeregress (2018 abgeschafft) und in der Schweiz Verwandtenunterstützung. Die Rechtsgrundlage für diese Ansprüche gegen erwachsene Kinder ergibt sich in Deutschland unter anderem aus den §§ 1601 ff., hinsichtlich der Einstandspflicht der Kinder, insbesondere § 1601 und § 1602 Abs. 1 BGB.

A “filial responsibility law” is not the same thing as the provision in United States federal law which requires a “lookback” of five years in the financial records of anyone applying for Medicaid to ensure that the person did not give away assets in order to qualify for Medicaid. Similar laws also exist in Germany, France, Taiwan and Singapore. (en)
