[QUOTE="Steely, post: 258817, member: 3301"] Shawna.............I actually have an answer to one of your questions. YAY! I feel like I can help. [I]Finally[/I]. Instead of declaring him incompetent - you can file for extended custody of your over 18 child. For me to be granted extended custody, I simply needed the psychiatric dr talking to the lawyer about Matt's disabilities and illness, my agreement, and Matt's agreement. Now getting B's agreement could be hard, but not once she is in jail, because she will be dried up and ready to sign anything that will help her stay out of jail (I would assume). I presented the document to Matthew as the only way he would continue to get the right kind of help, and [I]not[/I] end up in jail. And he signed it. Once you have extended custody, if the kid has any sort of out burst (as Matthew did - full blown - all 6'3 of him), they cannot take them to jail, they have to take them to a psychiatric unit. So in Matt's outburst the police took Matt in handcuffs to the pysch unit and put him on a 72 hour hold, where he had to be evaluated. What he did not know is that I had still had legal jurisdiction over which hospital he would go to - state or private - so he sweat out his 72 hour hold thinking he was going to state. I was then able to transfer him to a private hospital. Seriously the best counsel I have ever gotten was to get this extended custody - otherwise Matt would have gone down in flames, gotten a record, and would have been kicked out of his program.
