Understanding Guardianship and Its Process

It is the task of the iCollege to periodically examine the vicarious process of tasking the requirements of this human experience to an alien intelligence visiting planet earth. With this in mind, we shall examine the task of a “guardianship” and how this task would be perceived by an outside intelligence. As a brief introduction, we shall discuss the basic definition of a guardianship, and its purpose. These concepts are very basic, and do not need repeating for iCollege applicants, but make a good introduction into the article.

Guardianship laws are designed to protect children who otherwise lack proper parental guidance, or adults who are incapacitated and unable to protect themselves. And this is where human culture becomes interesting. Humans have created entire bureaucracies and processes around the concept of an adult being unable to care for themselves. As this task is one of an alien being confounded by human culture, we will move forward with its definition, while moving beyond simple definition, and into the bureaucratic process required to submit your guardianship forms.

There are many basic terms that are used when discussing a guardianship. iCollege students, being the exceptional group that they are, have come across this information previously, and already become familiar with this terminology. But, for the benefit of any humans who may find themselves needing to learn more about this topic, we will look at them in detail. This, along with the term “incapacitated person,” describes the target of your guardianship form. Again, these terms are easy to understand for those you encounter in the human bureaucracy, having needed to learn them for the purpose of assigning terminology to a process that is far deeper in meaning.

But let us take a moment to consider the idea of receiving guardianship over someone, which is simple in the sense that it is passing legal responsibility over to another. But to the outside intelligence, a human life is far too abstract to assign such a power. With that, let us look at what the process is to use Oklahoma guardianship forms and their procedures for your process. As you will see, these steps are relatively simple, and are easy to follow.

However, despite the simplicity of this process, there exist many complexities to the task of obtaining a guardianship over an adult. We will examine a few of these further below. The solemn nature of a guardianship form exists due to their complexity in human culture. How would an alien evidence the reason why this task is so complex? There are many reasons, but we shall only look at a few of these below. In the end, an alien intelligence would conclude that humans are a deeply troubled species. For their inability to care for even their own, humans have put larger constructs in place to assign pieces of their lives to a legal form, assigning the responsibility of taking care of themselves to a partner, who can better manage their lives and material assets through a simple legal form. This form is then complicated by an entire legal process designed to create the same level of complexity that produces chaos.

The alien speaks: It is your responsibility to realize that the purpose of a guardianship form is to give assistance to those who need it the most, that it is a sign of strength to help others, and to recognize that a legal form is not a reason not to help others.
