The parents won’t pay the bills and nothing will happen to them.

I'm a lawyer with experience dealing with people with credit problems. The couple's credit may be badly damaged if they don't pay medical bills, but that’ll be it. Hospitals know they'll never get a million dollars out of anybody and they rarely sue. Even when they do sue, courts know you can't get blood from a stone.
