If you use the money for Boone, and he is enjoying making what you sell, I

don't see any problem with it whatsoever. What else are you going to do

with it all, anyway? Throw it out?

People are idiots. You know this.

> Prints? A book? Actual clocks?

Whatever is easiest for you? Whatever people are asking for?

Good luck!

In regards to putting money into a child's account under the childs' name:

A while back I was having a discussion somewhere, can't remember where, but

basically the jist was that if you put funds into an account under your

childs' name, or make the child the beneficiary of monies and the state

becomes responsible for your child, the STATE has the right to the money,

NOT your child.

This may not be completely accurate, I'll have to dig out the specifics of

this conversation, or if anyone could chime in.....

I've told my mother NOT to put anything in Jacqui's name just in case she

someday, god forbid, becomes a ward of the state.

Sometimes is in " studies " at local children's hospitals. I only put

her in things that there is no risk and that will help someone else's kids.

I put all the money into her own savings account.

If I were you I would take anything you could be paid for and put it all

away

for Boone when he's older. That's just me.

Hugs I know you will make the right decision.

would love to see Boone's work!

I'm sure you guys will be the first to know.

That doesn't mean you have to buy anything.

Thanks, Penny.

This is definitely something to look into. I guess we should all know the

facts about this kind of stuff.

Oh I agree as far any an amount that is substantial. It has to be in a

trust set up for the child to protect his state supports should something

happen to the parents, then the state has to pay disability benefits or

whatever.
