[QUOTE="Mattsmom277, post: 312872, member: 4264"] I don't have written instructions. easy child would go to her dad. My difficult child at 16? He can legally live alone if he wanted. His bio dad might ask him to stay, but I doubt it. difficult child would say no. No court could force him. difficult child says he would stay with my S/O. S/O would of course be fine with keeping difficult child with him. I neglected to do this for difficult child in writing when he was younger. I'm so glad that nothing happened to need it! When he was younger, his dads family would have fought for difficult child but difficult child made it clear he would never live with them. My cousin and her now ex-husband long ago asked me to care for their son if anything happened to both of them. I agreed. They did go have it done up by a lawyer. Very wise of them. They could ill afford the legal cost, but they were wise to pony up the money and make it a legal document. I'm so sorry for the family and this little boy. Hope he is back with family and out of foster care quickly. how awful that CPS would withhold him from grandparents after something so tragic!! :( [/QUOTE]
