[QUOTE="Laker16, post: 728868, member: 22808"] Hi Susiestar, Thank you so much for your encouraging words. Apparently it is common amongst our NAMI group for parents to to get guardianship of their adult children to control their medication/medical decisions and their finances. I don't want that control over his life, but they were saying that even if I get SSI for him that he won't be capable of managing his money and will need us to be in charge of it. I agree, being a good person is important. We tried to instill that in both our kids. I don't think our son is bad, but he seems at time not to see how he affects us....I just don't know. I do appreciate your message of support, thank you. [/QUOTE]
