Will couple`s bankruptcy affect there small children

when a man goes bankrupt,and the house wife has to do the same, because she was forced to become his guarantor.
Is it true that their small children aged four and six automatically come under the category of Bankrupts? It is a point of great dispute. Thanking you.

To be considered a bankrupt you have to either assign yourself into bankruptcy or you have to be petitioned into bankruptcy by a creditor. As a result if your chilren’s names don’t appear on the petition or your children have not signed the bankruptcy documens they are not considered to be bankrupt.
