What rights does a ward have in a voluntary guardianship?

In a voluntary guardianship, the ward retains certain rights, including the ability to terminate the guardianship at will. This means that the ward has the power to request the end of the guardianship arrangement whenever they choose, as long as they are competent to make that decision. This right is rooted in the fundamental principle that individuals maintain control over their own lives, even when assistance is sought through guardianship.

The other options do not accurately represent the rights of a ward in a voluntary guardianship. While a ward can have some degree of influence over the guardian's actions, they cannot dictate all actions or refuse all reports, as there are mechanisms in place to ensure accountability and transparency between the guardian and the ward. Additionally, stating that a ward has no rights until further notice undermines the basic tenets of voluntary guardianship, which recognizes the autonomy of the ward at the outset.
