[QUOTE="buddy, post: 481398, member: 12886"] I see now, still new-ish here so wasn't sure what the issues were in this case, so now I get it, no custody/guardianship as an adult. OK makes perfect sense, I would hope I could be as strong as all of you when you do this.... I suppose as with all of us, we kind of are forced to find out how strong we can be when the situation arises. Midwest Mom, thanks for sharing that. I am trying to be prepared ahead of time. I could totally see my son, if given the "choice" saying he wants to be independent. But he would have NO CLUE what that involves. He would think things would still magically appear and though could state you have to work and get money, would never be able to work it all out and manage it himself. I do believe he can be semi-independent though, he has some great skills and talents. I sure hope that all the documentation I will have will solve the issue of his just wanting to be "independent" and not have to listen to mom. I do realize that the kids here like him are very different than straight mental illness or addiction. I was just confused by the signature, that's why I asked, hope you didn't mind. [/QUOTE]
