The subject of a living trust and legal guardian has popped up. We will be meeting an attorney in a few weeks to talk about a living trust. No biggie there, but when thinking about a legal guardian for JT came up all these questions came into my mind.
1. How do I pick a guardian?
2. If Aya and I die today, then an old person is cool to be a guardian. If we die 20 years from now, than a younger guardian would be better.
3. I can't ask someone who already has multiple kids. I don't want to burden them with ANOTHER kid to watch.
4. What if they don't have kids now when I pick them but have kids later?
5. What if they have no kids...and don't want any kids.
6. Some of you I wouldn't let drive my Celica so no way will you get JT.
7. Do I want a guy or a girl to watch my kid?
8. What if I like one spouse but not the other?
9. What if the Guardians don't like the Dodgers or Lakers? I can't have my son rooting for Clippers or Angels.
10. Does the person I select have to at least spend time with JT so if we do die he knows who you are??
Just several things I was thinking about. Needless to say no one out there is looking good to be a guardian.

Here's my 2 cents on guardian..if you don't name anyone, it's basically whomever will step up to the plate to take care of him. The state will give them the right. Even if you do name someone that person can refuse to be the guardian. That's why you have a list, we had 4 people in our list. According to our attorney, like the trustee, it can be as long as you like. You can also specify the guardian to be a couple so if they divorce before you die the guardianship will go to the next person on the list. ok..this is gonna take more then 2 cents. I'll email you as I want to get Voodo Vick's number for a co-worker. ;-)
