Guardianship For Minor Children
Did you Know?
69% of parents have not yet named legal guardians for their children. Of the 31% who have, most have made one of 6 common mistakes. That means that if you have minor children at home (or children who have special needs), it’s time to review your plan for their care, if and when something happens to you.
Finally, if you have not already read the book Wear Clean Underwear, it’s the best-selling book on legal planning for parents and it’s a must-read. You can get a copy of it with my compliments for free below
If you do nothing, the decision about who would raise your children (if something were to happen to you) would be left up to a judge to decide. A judge who doesn’t know you, doesn’t know what’s important to you, and doesn’t know your children will make all the decisions about who cares for the people who are most important to you in the world.
We know that’s not what you want. And, truth is… there may never be a perfect solution for you, but there is definitely a solution that is better than your children being raised by someone you didn’t choose.
Perhaps you think the way so many parents do, “if we don’t anticipate it, it will never happen, right?”
Begin here by taking the very first step that every parent must have in place and name legal guardians for free for your children for the long-term here.
