Has anyone taken guardianship of their child?

I have n/c but am a regular.

I have been advised by my lawyer that I will have to apply for guardianship of my dd when she turns 16 next year (Adults with Incapacity Act Scotland) even although I have always looked after her and will continue to do so once she leaves school.

What does this entail? All I know is that I would be interviewed by a solicitor and possibly social services?

Does anyone have any experience or advice with this in Scotland?

Sorry if this is posted in the wrong place but I was not sure where to post. Dd has global delay, autistic spectrum and is registered disabled due to her learning difficulties.

Can't help - but it might be worth trying Special needs board (more traffic).
