Are you sure you want to risk long-term credit problems because you refuse to interact with a debt collector? I don't think that's wise.

If they're not on the debt, hence why the collector won't talk to the adults, and the debt is in the name of a 10yro, won't that disappear by the time the kid's 18 and not show up on the parents' record?

Good debts stop showing after ten years. Ask me how I know. Do bad debts?

I'm not aware of any debt erasure that occurs when you're 18.

He's got 8 years to go until 18; doesn't unpaid debt fall off your credit report by then?

I meant I thought debt falls off your report after so many years.
