WE have a family member (young adult) who suffers with Bipolar Disorder. She's on SS Disability and largely on her own.

Lots of pluses...but MANY concerns.

When we (her family) travel, we have considered leaving her with a special-limited credit card that we could add money to (via computer) only in case of extreme emergency. For example, a medical issues...

However, we do not wish her to be able to overdraft on this card, or for this card to be tied to our bank account or for her use this card to get credit . We want don't want her to be able to creatively figure out a way to abuse the card. We have our reasons as to why, etc.

Does anyone know of a card...maybe a teen card, etc. that has a very good reputation that provides these types of services? Something simple and very VERY safe, especially in terms of PREVENTING ABUSES of any kind.

Has anyone used such a card and had good luck? If you have a specific name....might be best to PM me....

Please steer me in the right direction.

Many thanks!
