[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A bit off-tangent, but I have a question for those who designated friends as guardians as opposed to relatives. Is it even legal? As I understood from reading a thread on this board a couple of weeks ago, you can 'designate' whomever you want in your will, but there's no guarantee that your wish will be granted, and that judges still prefer to appoint blood relatives as caregivers, unless they are seriously 'unfit'. [/quote] Of course it's legal to designate whomever you choose. A child's custody is, however, always subject to the jurisdiction of the court. Judges aren't normally switching guardians willy nillly; however, relatives who preferred to have been chosen have been known to wage fights and win. [/quote]
