Ohio also has taken on rapidly growing practice of placing those with mental health or another disability in guardianship so they bypass any laws in place to protect those with disability. It is very obvious to see the plan Ohio has put intact to bypass the rights of Americans it called guardianship. My mother is example of this rapidly growing industry & no agency put in place to protect my mother has done anything of the sort but ignore all complaints or questions. I do hope that the meeting taking place will move this crisis in the right direction. Ohio is not following the law of guardianship either there are many other options for people rather than stripping any and all of the rights they have to be heard. Another increasing as disturbing practice taken place is the fact Ohio's courts are taking loved ones from families that truly and sincerely care for them and instead placing them in professional agencies that is resulting in isolation, abuse and their assets to be rapidly dissolved with the fee's they are forced to pay which was never asked for by them. The Probate records will show a increasing rate of children being placed with agencies against their mother or fathers wishes or even that of the child. Those agencies do a horrible job providing support, care and protection for that person but these acts are being ignored by the Probate Courts daily! There are other options other than guardianship as is supposed to be a absolute last resort & Ohio is ignoring that at a extreme rate. I do believe that their answer to even this lawsuit is that if they place those in guardianship then no one has to answer to where Ohio decides they will force that person to live? The law also states that all family members must be contacted in a guardianship proceeding but this part of the law is ignored on a daily basis then not acknowledged when brought to the court? Ohio advertises they are the top at caring for those which are in need but the person and that persons family will tell quite a different story when asked. There are so many innocent people forced to live in facilities when there are other options for them to receive a quality of life not to be isolated from their family which loves them with a disability or not.
