<p>I looked up the rule and I was apparently incorrect. The child can be married and have children but neither spouse nor child can be covered under the child’s parent’s policy. Since I am quite certain that my son won’t question me, I am sticking with telling him he can’t be married or have a child anyway. I don’t want him married or parenting yet. </p>
<p>He twisted his ankle last week and went to the ER; I took the opportunity to remind him that he is only able to get this treatment because he is single and childless and lucky enough to have a mom with health insurance! Acually, he doesn’t live at home and has only a part-time job so he would probably qualify for Medicaid but that makes a lien and it’s not an option I want for him as long as there are other alternatives.</p>
