[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Somewhat related: I was thinking of getting a healthcare power of attorney before my 18 year old goes OOS to college this fall. This would be in case of something really bad like a car accident and the kid isn’t able to communicate. Anyone hear or have experience that this is necessary or is it overkill since I’m the parent?[/quote] Every parent absolutely needs to have POAs (general and healthcare) and a HIPAA waiver. Your student will also need to sign a FERPA waiver for you to have access to any of their academic information, as well. I’m a lawyer and I used Mama Bear legal forms, just because it was easy & they have forms tailored to the state where your kid can will be attending school.FWIW, not every state has the same age of majority (it’s not always 18). This *may* be overkill, but because of certain legal differences, I did a set of documents for our home state and a set for the state of the university. [/quote]
