Choosing the Right Guardian for Your Child
There are several types of guardianships, depending on your circumstances and whether or not you've already included a guardian in your will. This includes limited guardianship, emergency guardianship, and successor guardianship. Typically, it is recommended that you choose someone close to you, such as a family member or long-term friend. Should you pass away without a named guardian, the court usually tries to do the same and choose a guardian who was a relative or close friend of you and your family.
A few factors to consider when you choose a guardian include:
- Their moral beliefs
- Their age and health
- Their physical abilities
- Their free time to care for a child
