[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 409452, member: 393"] wm has a job at his school ~ they want to teach wm money management. "They" want wm's account attached to mine (NOT). In wm's mind if there is a check or a debit card there is money. I let wm know that I would meet him with staff & get his checks cashed but I wouldn't in any way open an account with my name attached to his account. He's hurt & angry. I'm just angry. wm is on disability however that is going toward payment of his foster care placement. I'm going to get wm's GAL involved - she's the one pushing me to continue as wm's guardian after he hits 18. She's not happy I'm not willing/able to do that. The state has changed laws about signing over parental rights for cause here ~ it's not going to happen tho it had been in the works for a while now. wm doesn't have a permanency plan nor does he need one. Mental health case manager knows that it isn't safe for wm to be here & the state/county is okay with that. I don't want to "dump" wm off on someone else yet this is a safety issue - not much more can be said. If wm refuses services (help) when he becomes 18 he's on his own even tho he's operating at the 6-8 year old level. This was more a vent than anything.....need to move on with my day. [/QUOTE]
