Stripped of All Power

 

It's not just about money...

 

Once adjudicated as "incapacitated," this is what happens to a Ward of the State:

 What's wrong with this picture?
A convicted serial killer has more Constitutional rights than a "protected" Ward of the State.

Wards of the state, in an abusive guardianship or conservatorship  don't have the right to say "no" to forced drugging (chemical restraints) -and their families are not permitted to intervene.

     

Wards don't have the right to choose their own doctor, ask for a second opinion, ask for or refuse treatment.

     

Wards don't have the right to say "no" to a nursing home or keep their homes from being sold to pay the guardian's exorbitant fees.

     

Wards don't have the right to see their family freely or sometimes not at all.

     

Wards don't have the right to vote.

     

Wards don't have the right to marry.

   

 

Wards don't have the right to go outdoors alone to enjoy a sunny day or the pleasures of nature.

   

 

Wards don't even have the right to companionship and comfort of a pet.

   

 

Wards don't have the right to a phone in their room or the ability to receive phone calls freely.

   

 

Wards don't have the right to drive.

   

 

Wards cannot contract or object to a contract made by the guardian or conservator.

   

 

A convicted serial killer has more constitutional rights than a "protected" Ward of the State.
