Mother MHMR?

Mother is high function mental retardation. She is her own payee, lives alone unassisted, cooks and pays her own bills. She can do basic math problems, read and write. Can she legally sign legal papers to sign over her parental rights for adoption purpose?

I'm her medical power of attorney

Yes...She would have lost nothing. You would have lost your beginning, your first House, your ground, and the list goes on...it seems you want to resign yourself from your queen. But, even queens heads have been known to roll. Because, if Her peoples, being them which is born from Her, if they ain't happy, or well nurtured, they could turn on Her. Maybe she has an unstable vagina, and shez trippin cause she cant' get no dick! It's a bit like an unstable angina, could be quite painful, if not serviced. She could become grumpy, and very grumpy. Try and hook her up. Do a business with it, 25g introduction fee, and make sure you get paid first...Dead or Alive, we are all a Bu$ine$$.

If she has been signing other legal documents in her life and does not have a Power of Attorney given to anyone else, then I don't see why not. You need to know what other legal documents she has signed and if she has an appointed Guardian or Power of Attorney.

If she is not the ward of anyone, then yes. But this sounds like a matter to have competent legal counsel on - a family law attorney. Mother needs her OWN attorney or a Guardian Ad Litem (legal rep) to make sure her wishes & rights are respected.

AS YOU POSSESS "MEDICAL POWER OF ATTORNEY", TAKE HER TO A PSYCHIATRIST,SO THAT HE/SHE MAY EVALUATE HER ,AND "SIGN-OFF" /"DOCUMENT", THAT SHE IS MENTALLY COMPETENT TO "legally sign legal papers to sign over her parental rights for adoption purpose"---"BETTER NOW=BEFORE, THAN LATER"!!!---IT IS YOU WHO SEEMS TO POSSESS PERSONAL "DOUBTS"---OTHERWISE, YOU WOULDN'T BE ASKING!!!--THIS WAY ,WITH THE OFFICIAL LEGAL-MEDICAL DOCUMENTATION, YOU'LL FEEL "LEGALLY ASSURED"!

Only a psycologist would be able to provide an answere that would hold up in court. If she is evaluated and found to be legally competent to make such descisions then you will have it in writing by a profesional. The visit may be very short if she is as aware of her surroundings as you say she is. However if she wishes to pursue it then for you the best course of action would be to have her talk to a psycologist.

In my state, if she was in a lucid interval she could do it.
