Other people as guardians
In some circumstances, people other than a child's parents can become guardians of a child. These circumstances are set out below.
Testamentary guardians
(Care of Children Act 2004, s.26)
Testamentary guardians are appointed by a will or deed of a parent of the child. The person appointed becomes a testamentary guardian automatically when the parent dies.
A testamentary guardian becomes a joint guardian with any other guardians. However, the surviving parent or guardian may challenge his or her appointment.
Note:Testamentary guardians have the guardianship responsibilities of contributing to the child’s development and helping to make the important decisions in a child’s life. However, they do not have the automatic right to provide day-to-day care for the child. They must apply to the court if they want to be involved in the child’s day-to-day care.作者: moonkey2014 时间: 2014-6-26 15:01:47
直接说拒绝肯定不好吧。是不是可以委婉的和老公做一下沟通,比如I'd love to be guardian, but 首先,要看咱家有没有这个能力,自已的小家庭还需要照顾和养活,更不要说还计划追一个孩子了。小朋友不是给口吃的就自己长大的,会耗心耗力的,不是你不愿意这样做,而是你们没有能力这样做,如果老公有100%的信心教育好6个小孩子,那就再找另一个理由。作者: DD2ANGELS 时间: 2014-6-26 16:43:42
