What is the definition of a dependent in a H4? What are the responsibilities of the H1 holder in respect of the dependent?
 
Spouse and children are dependents for H4. You have to support them financially - including health insurance and educational expenses if they are attending school. They are expected to make their home with you; note children attending the university consider their parents' home their legal residence.

Parents do NOT qualify as H4 dependents even if they are financially dependent on you.
