A parent cannot get guardianship of their own child. Guardianship is when a non-parent obtains legal custodial rights of a child without going through full adoption.
Another View: If the son is of legal age to be considered an adult yet has been adjudged mentally incompetent or physically unable to care for themselves, THEN the parent(s) could petition the court for guardianship. Whether or not they could do it without lega lhelp is questionable. Much depends on just how knowledgeable and 'savvy' the parents are. Certain legal requirements of the law must be met and complied with and certain filings must be done. I would strongly suggest consulting with an attorney.
