Should an impaired driver pay child support if he kills a parent?

It's certainly possible to file a civil suit, and get a judgment for damages in excess of their insurance maximum. However in some of the United States it is not possible to garnish wages to satisfy a judgment, so most are uncollectible.

They should be put in labor camps and all earned income goes to the family of the victim.

Yes, the impaired driver should be legally required to pay child support—though it is not technically called “child support” in this context but more like restitution.

[DJB72]

Yes. No question. Especially if it's the primary breadwinner.

[Jerre]

Most definitely yes, but will be difficult when in prison.

[strateguy632]

Huh? Of course not! That is indirect.

[strateguy632]

Also negligence is bad but not as bad as intended

[Drumlin2001]

Bit hard to pay anything from prison

[Kelly6]

@ariadneR yes.
