IN THE CHANCERY COURT OF       COUNTY, MISSISSIPPI IN THE MATTER OF THE GUARDIANSHIP OF       NO.       REPORT OF GUARDIAN AD LITEM COMES NOW,       , Guardian Ad Litem for       , and reports as follows: 1. On             , 20       I was appointed Guardian Ad Litem of       , a minor. In the discharge of my duties I reviewed the sworn Petition for Appointment of Guardianship and the Degree Appointing Temporary Guardian. Further, I interviewed       the paternal       of the minor, his/her husband/wife ,       , the minor,       , and       , the paternal       of the minor. 2.       was born             ,       . His/Her natural parents were       and       . Said natural parents were divorced on the       day of       ,       in the       Judicial District of       ,       . Pursuant to said divorce,       was awarded sole custody of the award. Neither the Ward nor the Petitioners have had any contact with the natural father/mother since prior to the divorce being granted. 3. On the frst day of       ,       ,       , the natural father/mother and sole legal custodian of the Ward, departed this life in       County, Mississippi. From the time of his/her father/mother passing until the appointment of the Petitioners as temporary guardians, on             ,       the Ward resided in       County, Mississippi with his/her step-father/step- mother       . 4. On             ,       this Court appointed the Petitioners       and       as temporary guardians and granted Petitioners' request for permission to move the person and the estate of the Ward to their home in       ,       County. The Ward has been residing with Petitioners since             ,       . 5. Petitioners have been married for       years and have       children of their own; ages:       .       is employed as an       for the       .       has a       and is presently       at       in       , 6. Upon questioning, the Ward stated that he/she was extremely happy living with the Petitioners in       . In particular, the Ward stated that he/she liked living with his/her       , that he/she liked the fact that the Petitioners made him/her abide by rules, and that the Petitioners had shown him/her more love and attention than he/she had ever known in his/her life. Further, the Ward stated that there was no animosity or problems with the other children in the home, and that the Petitioners treated them equally. According to the Ward, the Petitioners have him/her attending church on a regular basis and he/she is to be/was baptized on       ,             ,       . 7. The Petitioners indicate that the Ward has adjusted well to his/her new surroundings and has not exhibited any of the behavioral problems, which resulted in the       County Youth Court proceedings. The Petitioners stated that they love the Ward and desire to raise him/her as a one of their own children. The Petitioners do not have the Ward in school at the present time because he/she failed       grade and does not want to be held back a year. The plan regarding the Ward's education is to allow him/her to attend school in       under the care and direction of his/her paternal grandfather/grandmother to make up missed class work and then return to       to continue his/her education with his/her original graduating class. This is possible because of the diference in the school years between the two countries. Although allowing the Ward to live in       with his/her paternal grandfather/grandmother causes some concern, and appears that it will only be for a short period of time and the Ward is very excited about the potential for visiting other blood relatives and experiencing the native country of his/her father/mother . Overall, it appears that living and attending school in       will beneft the Ward by allowing him/her to overcome the problems created by his/her failing the       grade and allowing him/her becoming familiar with his/her family roots and heritage. 8. In conclusion, it appears that naming       the guardians of       would be in his/her best interest. The Petitioners are blood relatives who obviously love and care about the Ward. Moreover, the Ward shows love and respect for the Petitioners. It appears that the Petitioners will provide the Ward with a stable family environment, which the Ward has lacked since the death of his/her father/mother .

Respectfully submitted, this the       day of       , 20       . ____________________________________       , Guardian Ad Litem of       CERTIFICATE OF SERVICE This is to certify that I,       , have forwarded this date a true and correct copy of the above and foregoing document, by U.S. Mail, postage fully prepaid, to       ,       ,       .
