A guardian of the estate for any unemancipated minor may be appointed under G.S. Chapter 35A to receive and administer property on the minor’s behalf.  G.S. 35A-1221; G.S. 35A-1251; G.S. 35A-1202(12) (requiring also that the minor must not be married).  This is because such minors are legally incompetent to transact business or give consent for most purposes.  G.S. 35A-1201(a)(6); see G.S. 7B-3507 (rights of emancipated minors).  Unemancipated minors therefore need responsible, accountable adults to handle property or benefits to which they are entitled.  Id.
