[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 409625, member: 1991"] I just had another thought. Linda, you said he gets disability, but that pays for his upkeep. How is that managed in practical terms? Does it all go into wm's bank account then wm withdraws it and pays cash over the counter? If not, why not? Or does the money get automatically taken out, and then any leftover goes to wm? If it's done this way, then why? Those are rhetorical questions. But they are pertinent. If they cannot trust wm to pay his own way with his own disability, why should they want you to have your money mixed in with his? Long before they ask you to fund wm's bank account, they should be paying all wm's disability into wm's personal account, and working with him to pay his own bills from it. THAT is the starting point. And if they're not prepared to do that, then you are certainly not being unreasonable to refuse. Marg [/QUOTE]
