I wonder what the critics on this thread would do if they had two severely handicapped children who needed very expensive care to have some semblence of a life and they were were going or had already gone bankrupt trying to provide that care. That’s right, most of you would sue.

As the sister-in-law to a profoundly disabled adult, I can tell you that the government takes complete care of those with these kinds of disabilities. My brother-in-law has been at a state developmental center since 1969 and is receiving excellent care at no cost to the family.

What I am curious about is if the money is slated to go to the care of the child, in which case the parents can’t legally get their hands on it, or if the money is to be given directly to the parents. hmmm...

In either case, when the child dies, the parents would get whatever is left as next of kin.

WOW! Guess what? I have 2 severely handicapped sons requiring medication every 4 hours around the clock. I still have not talked to a lawyer about sueing!

That doesn’t make it right or ethical.
