How Old Should the Guardian Be?

How old should the Guardian be?By Russ

• Will the guardian be changing the childs diapers
  or will the
• child be changing the guardians diapers? If the
  latter, the
• guardian is too old.

• Practically speaking, if you place a child in the
  care of a senior citizen, the child will end up
  being the caregiver of the supposed guardian.

4

• At the lower age range, the guardian must be at
  least 18. I would rarely recommend placing young
  children in the care of an 18 year old. However,
  a 16 year old sibling may in some cases be placed
  in the care of his older brother or sister.
