The better question is why this 37-year-old never attempted to end the conservatorship before. Why is he only complaining now?

For me, the better question is still why this family would want to hold a conservatorship over a middle-aged man. The Tuohys are obviously wealthy and did not need money from Oher's NFL career. Conservatorships are a lot of responsibility - why hold one over a grown man who seems fully competent?

"Competent" may be the key word here. But, if there is some issue with the the conservatorship, it is up to the supposedly competent grown man to have it ended. He consented to it when he was about 18, but didn't complain until he was 37? This is all on him.

Remember Brittany Spears? Her father got conservatorship over her supposedly because of mental health issues, and within a few years she was fighting to get it removed. Oher only now is complaining?
