[QUOTE="2much2recover, post: 639138, member: 18366"] I also want to add that while I was legal guardian for my adult sister, I took Professional Guardianship classes. One of the things I learned was the concept of "best interest". I really liked that concept because it was always top of my agenda "what would my sister want if [I]she[/I] wast making these decisions" and "what are her rights". Also I came up against a few people who didn't quite "get" guardianship. They would try to prevent me from gaining medical knowledge from me by siting HIPAA or "privacy rights" I had to say more than a few times "it is not [I]my right [/I]to be here, [I]it is my duty [/I]to be here/ to know. Knowing this - can help you think out what are some of Connor's rights? Maybe a list will help you. To get you started: He has the right to be in his own bed at a reasonable hour (not out running around in cars) He has a right to a daily bath He has the right to be fed on time and healthy food Well you get the idea. These are whatever his rights are and wherever you feels she has been acting on [I]her [/I]right to parent VS what the needs of the child are. [/QUOTE]
