    What happens when you emancipate a disabled child?

    thank you I will look into that. I have medical records showing they had their health conditions long before turning 18. Will that make any difference? I never thought I would be faced with this situation or I would have had the order changed before they turned 18. I knew my exhusband was a bad...

    What happens when you emancipate a disabled child?

    Yes I went through all of that with DSS and after 2 hearings they determined they couldn’t proceed because of his emancipation order. They said I have to go to family court to get a new order.

    What happens when you emancipate a disabled child?

    What happens when you emancipate a disabled child?

    Hi, my Ex-husband knowingly emancipated my disabled child when they turned 18 to get out of child support. DSS says they can’t help because of the emancipation order. He knowingly financially neglected his disabled child and I’m shocked there is no protection for these kids for this through DSS...
