Yes, the husband and wife are just as responsible for the debt as co-signers as the daughter. The problem is since the daughter left the country, the student loan is uncollectible, but that fact doesn't affect the rights of the creditors. The parents will either have to pay back the debt, or proceed to file for Chapter 7 or 13 bankruptcy.

Because the debtor's child support is withdrawn from his paystub, the expense is listed in ___________.
