In this episode, Laura Thatcher discusses the guardianship nomination process. She explores many different scenarios involving guardian appointment, the difference between a physical guardian and a financial guardian, etc. Be sure to grab a copy of Laura’s “How to Pick a Guardian” worksheet, information down below.

Key takeaways:

• If you do nothing else, put in writing who you want to be the guardian of your children should something happen to you. Sign it and date it. Even better if you can get it notarized.
• If you and your spouse can’t agree on a guardian for your children, just create your own lists separately. That is much better than having no one designated and risking your kids ending up in Child Protective Services.
• Contrary to popular belief, a child’s godparent is NOT legally the automatic guardian if something happens.
