Are you liable for the negligent acts of your children?
Children, although adorable, have a real specialty for destroying things and sometimes they destroy really expensive things. Take the child who used permanent marker all over the neighbor’s new quartz countertop or the child who rubbed slime all through an authentic Persian rug whilst on a playdate.
Paying for the damage caused by your little angel may be the right thing to do, but a legal obligation to do so only arises in certain circumstances.
