    Default Guardianship Over Adult Daughter

    My question involves guardianship in the State of: ohio
    I don't know if you can help me or if not maybe able to tell me where I can get assistance.
    My situation is this I have a 27 yr old daughter Nicole who has had for 4 children ages 6,4,2, and 10 mo. She has been a stay home mom and has a husband who worked long hours and job required travel. So she stayed home with children all the time and handle everything mostly alone .She had previously lived out of state so no family .She recently moved back to Ohio but husband still worked in Maryland and home every 2 weeks .She had always been a very loving and devoted Mom ,never wanting to be separated from her children . In last few months that has changed . She said was depressed and begged her to see so one I know a lot on anyone having 4 children so close together . She said she would but never has. She has became very desponded to all her family ,she let everything go around her ,her house ,clothes ,children.one day look like children just got into what ever they wanted cereal on floor ,eggs in the sink, then she started talking to man from Egypt on line ,became more consumed and less on children ,she become verbally meaner with children ,paid even less attention with them ,her world focus around her computer she seemed obsessed and he convinced her she in love with him she left her husband ,and started getting divorce but it went on and he convinced her to come over there and marry him .we begged to not do it ,have him come here ,first he said he would but had excuse after excuse she says he can't ..we tried to warn her that if he can't must be reason .this is dangerous .I went on to us embassy and it warns about this .men in this country primarily target venerable women thru internet for marriage to get citizenship/green card then become abusive and end up leaving them for women here from there country ..she says not him .. Now we learned she obtained a passport and this week agreed to give temporary custody of kids to her husband (she says for a year)when divorce is final. I know she doing this because to go over and marry him she must stay 6 months. I don't know what to do ..he is a stranger and this dangerous . Within a couple months she turned her whole personality around and her world upside down .these kids were everything to her ,she always been if anything over protective of them ,she swore she never do anything and always put them first and she is for some one she never met .It is almost like she brainwashed. This is not rational behavior and her mood swing are severe. I feel she making decision irrationally .Is there anything that can be done ? Can I intervene to take guardianship over her .To stop her from making anymore damage
    Thank you

    If you can prove that she's mentally incompetent, you could seek guardianship. Falling in love with (potentially) the wrong guy, being depressed, making bad choices in her personal life? Probably not enough to meet that standard. But go ahead and consult a lawyer about your options under the circumstances - you have a better idea of the state of her depression / possible delusion than we do.
