  • The video is about people who try to get ahold of your lives through the law. It could happen to any age, although elders are common targets.

  • old people abuse you too now a days

  • Thank you for sharing!

  • guess what?

    old people should not abuse any one either

  • it's so stupid! one day my grandpa was abusing my dad and my dad fought back at him and beat my grandmpa up and i came to my grandpas rescue and tried to act like a little hero and beat my dad up for harming my grandmpa and i managed to take him down with a plastic base ball bat and the police took me and my grandmpa BOTH to jail for assault so fuck the police!!!!

  • i'll kill any one who would hit my grabdparents even if my grnadparents were the ones who started the fight! i'm just a punk that way.

    i would NEVER hit an old man even he hit me first, and sociaty hates me for that. even other old people hate me for that and the police want to see me in jail.

  • Yet, the State of SC recently prosecuted a man who gave up his job to take care of his elderly aunt for the simple act of buying a 30 dollar pre-paid phone from her bank account WITH her consent and blessing (and she IS mentally competent) SO he had another lifeline to her when he went to the store. Another case, an elderly woman loaned her nephew 100 dollars to buy a suit SO he could go on a job interview. Social Services said he "exploited her". She told him to go get it as a gift from her.

  • My mom has been cleaned out by my drug trafficking and drug addict brother. I tried everything to no avail. Called police, FBI, banks, District Attorney and Adult Protective Services. They're all morons who don't care. I'm risking my life tracking a drug addict and his connections.

  • @brotherofathief im going through the exact same thing, im over here tearing up now.the law has not been any help what so ever!

  • my uncle had all his money stolen by my cousin... he grabbed his power of attorney, cleaned out his accounts, got him to sign a new will.. then my uncle died and my cousin cremated him like a dog the following day without notifing my family... police did nothing and by the time it got to court the judge told me i was the bad guy. untill the police and courts get serious nothing will ever be done.

  • excellent film - very important issue.

  • There are many programs and departments providing information on the warning signs of elder financial abuse, but my family has learned that it's like some cancers; once it shows signs, it's too late to do anything. A non-relative moved into my 86-year old father's home 8 years ago and we are powerless because my father is cooperating with the abuser. My father passed a geriatric exam and is a sitting duck for the abuser living with him. He's brainwashed my father completely against the family.

  • By the way we will all be an elder one day , if we keep living.

  • Our elders need to know that they will be cared for and respected as they age. We need to find ways to stop the abuse, neglect and exploitation. Please visit the forum on the ElderAware web page discuss and share ways to help.

  • Anyone in New York can look up the law of guardianship for the elderly in the "Mental Hygiene Law Article 81". Within that law there is a section on the "powers of a guardian" which every person should read. After reading it, you will realize that everything you imagined about your civil rights or due process was a figment of someone's imagination. Remember, forewarned is forearmed. Join the fight to stop forced guardianships and conservatorships before it happens to you!!!!

  • It could happen to you ...One day, you are a free person, enjoying your golden years your own way. Then, a judge rules you incapacitated

    and you are shackled to a corrupt guardian who has total control over your liberty, your property, and your life. Your family is helpless to stop them. National Association to Stop Guardian Abuse was formed by victims and for victims to put an end to this insidious practice. If you or someone you love have been victimized, please visit NASGA.

  • This happened to my mother. Guardianship and conservatorship is a modern day holocaust. To learn more watch the stories of other victims on youtube. Just search using the word NASGA. Learn before it happens to you or someone you love. It could save your estate and maybe your life.

  • Everyone should send this video to everyone they love before it is too late and they are snagged by the guardianship courts where they will lose their money, their freedom and sometimes even their lives. Guardianship and conservatorship are a modern day holocaust. To learn more about similar victims of abusive guardianship and conservatorships search for other videos on yuotube using the search word:

  • Great post! You may want to tone down the music it's very distracting.

  • THe government via the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 will suck every penny an old person has before they can qualify for Medicaid. The old are in a lose/lose situation, anyway. This video is gov propaganda.

  • I am going to try help how ever I can to stop elder abuse in Jesus name.

  • Great video! Thank you for getting the word out. Everyone needs to know what I and others have learned first hand.

  • Great to see so many great exposes of the guardianship and conservator laws which are unconstitutional and abusive. i am a videographer and award winning photographer, let me know if I can help with a documentary. Keep up the good work. If everyone tells one other person what they learned from these videos, and asked that person to tell someone else, soon the world will know the truth.

  • Thank you for watching! Please post comments.
