[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 752993, member: 18958"] This is true for children, too, who are involved in the system. My son was 22 months when he became my foster adopt child. He had an attorney who visited my home, to get a sense of who I was and whether it was in his best interest that I adopt him. My son who could barely talk, could hardly give consent. Either that he have an attorney or a mother. Although he did very much want a mother. I would guess there would be some sort of assessment made of your grandmother's capacity to make decisions in her best interest. And they will go from there. This is a delicate process because people have the right to be dependent, or to be fools, and to allow themselves to be taken advantage of--unless they are mentally impaired by illness or age.
