As a parent of a disabled child I was really upset to hear that if your child has a Child Trust Fund and they are disabled (vulnerable) they might not be able to access the money when they turn 18. Basically, some disabled kids won’t be able to access their money without going through the courts, which costs a lot! No one thinks about those children who can’t withdraw their own money, now this leaves us stuck with money in an account that we can’t get to without paying more money out.
