Did you read the article and quotes from the book?
Oher's claims match what was said...
Oher was told that the conservatorship made him part of the family.
False
Oher was told that he was unable to be legally adopted because of his age.
False
A conservatorship allows the Tuohys to make business deals in Michael's name. True
A conservatorship is not required to help someone with car insurance, a driver's license, or getting into college.
The first question I have is what did Oher do with the $100k.
The second question is why the Tuohy's lawyer chose a conservatorship? Brittney Spears had a conservatorship. Did Oher have a drug problem? Self harm?
18 year old Michael Oher being represented by the Tuohy's attorney to sign over rights into a conservatorship is the question at hand. And the truth will come out (for or against the Tuohys. For or against Oher).

I just had a thought about this which, admittedly, is pure conjecture and looking for a conspiracy wherever possible.
Maybe Oher needs$ and he thought that, since the Touhy’s adopted him he would eventually get a share of the $200 million referenced by the family’s attorney from the sale of the restaurants. He found out conservatorship does not actually make you an heir and now he’s looking to stir stuff up to see if he can get a court to essentially convert the conservatorship into an adoption.

Would it be helpful to stop someone from handing over money to drug addict parent? Or someone who allowed himself to have a conservator for almost 19 years through multiple NFL contracts and a marriage up until he was 37 years old?
I don’t really think I would be ready to legally adopt an adult I had only known for 1 to 2 years. You can treat an adult like family, support them, and have them live with you without adoption or a conservatorship, but I can see being concerned about his past trying to influence him or come around looking for money. He obviously still had issues from childhood going into college. This was also pre-NIL, and this could limit what he could sign, be tricked into, and affect his eligibility.
After the movie the mom became more famous than Oher. She was also at least half the story if not more because of the movie and Sandra Bullock. Oher can seemingly only bring up the movie, and the writer of the book has probably best answer on what they all made.
I don’t think they are saints or anything close, but they were rich before Oher & movie. They got famous after movie.
Oher was embarrassed by portrayal and came out with his own book 2 years after the movie. He has mentioned he started to have concerns before but wanted to wait until he finished playing in the NFL which happened after 2016 season. He says he found out for sure in Feb 2023 (took at least 7 years) and still waited 6 months to end conservatorship.
What else happened since 2016 season?
The tuohys sold business they had before they knew Oher for close to $200 million.
And:
quote:
Oher began dating Tiffany Roy after first meeting at the University of Mississippi. They went on to have four children together; two sons and two daughters. The couple got engaged on July 21, 2021, and married on November 5, 2022 in Nashville, Tennessee. At the time of their marriage, the couple had been together for 17 years.
Tiff waited long enough and wants some reparations
It would be funny if the Tuoys had to approve him getting married like a simpleton.

A conservatorship is not required to help someone with car insurance, a driver's license, or getting into college.
They didn't want to adopt him so they got a conservatorship instead to avoid potentially impacting his eligibility.
