You need to have the trust explained to you. Contact the trustee to see what the requirements for distributions are for your child's trust. Most trusts have a HEMS standard for distributions. This means the trustee can provide money for the health, education, maintenance and support of the beneficiary. A car woudl typically be something a trtustee could do under these standards, but the decision is in the discretion of the trustee. A trustee can be called to task if he is too tight with the distributions.
