Continue Parental Responsibility Automatically when disabled children turn 18 - 20,124 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 20,135 - 4 added in the past 24hrs)

Change the law to automatically allow parents or carers to retain parental responsibility when their disabled child turns 18, if the child lacks capacity and remains in the parent’s care. We think this would remove the need for costly and unnecessary applications to the Court of Protection.

The Government responsed to this petition on 12th November 2025 (View Full Response)
The Government has no plans to legislate to allow parental responsibility to continue from age 18 in order to ensure that the best interests of young adults are protected in all cases.
