[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 611597, member: 1550"] I did it because Sonic has no clue how to handle money and would spend it all if somebody else didn't control it. That was my main reasons. Plus Sonic is not ready to have t he responsibilities of a legal adult and is good with this arrangement; even went to court with us and agreed that it was in his best interests. I have no idea how it works if the adult child is against it. For the most part, Sonic makes all of his own decisions, but I dole out his money to him so he can get his bills paid and not run himself broke the first day he gets a paycheck. We will revisit this in the future. Sonic likes the security of somebody being able to veto his choices, but I normally tell him to make his own decisions. It is worthwhile for any adult child who is unready or unfit to make good choices for himself even though he/she is of adult age. Sonic is getting a lot of good services for adults and is well on his way to only needing somebody to handle his money. I don't know idf he will ever stop feeling compelled to spend every dime the first day he gets it...lol. [/QUOTE]
