In cases like this, the majority of the money is usually put into a trust fund that neither the child nor the parents can access. In some cases, the child can petition the executor of the trust fund for a forward (for example, to pay for college), but for the most part the trust fund is locked. Once the child is of a certain age (usually between 18 to 25), the child is able to access the trust fund.
