No.
The government and society cuts off any assistance to the parent(s), but continues to provide funds to the child(ren). If the parent(s) co-opts the child(ren)'s funds, then perhaps removal of the child(ren) from the purview of the parents should be considered.
There needs to be a way to penalize people for their bad decisions, without penalizing those who are innocent and who are a consequence of the bad decision(s).
