    "content": "The reason I am suggesting this is that you find very many cases where a parent discovers about the problem after the child’s 18th birthday. You are then stuck because it is not your fault. It should not be limited to a discovery beyond a child’s 18th birthday. Clause 129 (2) of the Bill deals with a child who suffers from mental or physical disability. We have dealt with many such cases in the past. One guardian or parent suffers because the issue was not discovered before the child’s 18th birthday. It is wrong to provide for that. Even if it is discovered after, it should be under exceptional circumstances as opposed to within the 18th birthday."
