If you mean can they use the child's tax REFUND to pay their taxes, sure. Money is money. If you mean do they have the right to take the child's money and use it on themselves, that's trickier. You'd have to look at the laws regarding the rights of minors in your state.
Minor children should sign their own tax return. If a child cannot sign his or her return, a parent or guardian can sign the child's name in the space provided at the bottom of the tax return followed by "By (signature), parent (or guardian) for minor child."
If they are old enough to write and understand what they are doing, they can sign their own return. If not, the parent should sign the parent's name and write underneath it "as parent of minor child."
Responsibility of parent.Generally, a child is responsible for filing his or her own tax return and for paying any tax on the return. But if a dependent child who must file an income tax return cannot file it for any reason, such as age, then a parent, guardian, or other legally responsible person must file it for the child. If the child cannot sign the return, the parent or guardian must sign the child's name followed by the words "By (your signature), parent for minor child."Amounts a child earns by performing services are his or her gross income. This is true even if under local law the child's parents have the right to the earnings and may actually have received them. If the child does not pay the tax due on this income, the parent is liable for the tax.Certain Children Under Age 19 or Full-Time StudentsIf a child's only income is interest and dividends (including capital gain distributions and Alaska Permanent Fund dividends), the child was under age 19 at the end of 2009 or was a full-time student under age 24 at the end of 2009, and certain other conditions are met, a parent can elect to include the child's income on the parent's return. If this election is made, the child does not have to file a return. See Parent's Election To Report Child's Interest and Dividends in chapter 31.Go to the IRS gov web site and use the search box for Publication 17 Your Federal Income Tax For Individuals chapter 1You can click on the below related link
Presuming you claim him as a dependent, his income becomes yours. What the rules try to make sure that a parent can't have some income go to his children, who would have a much lower tax rate than the parent. It must be taxed at the parents rate. See the question "How much income do you have to earn before you file income tax?" which I'll try and link below too for more.
If a minor has any income tax liability the minor would be required to file a income tax return. When you are a dependent on another individual income tax return and you have 950 or more of unearned income you are required to file a federal income tax return.
No, the minor parent is.
No, that is not true. Until you are an adult, the parents determine where the minor lives.

{| |- | Certainly you can as long as you have the parents permission. Until they reach the age of majority the parent is responsible for the minor. But the parents can decide were the best place for a child to live is. It does not relieve them of responsibility for the child. |}

10. In Michigan, a minor child (under 18 years of age) is legally defined as a possession of a parent(s). A minor child (a “possession”) cannot own possessions; therefore, any gift to the minor child, something a minor bought with personal money, or wages earned by the minor child are legally the possessions of the parent. A 17 year old who has left home against the parents’ wishes and refuses to return home has no legal right to any possessions in the parent’s home. 11. Parents control whether a minor child has a driver’s license until the age of 18 years. A parent can at any time revoke a minor child’s driving privileges. The parent will need to write a letter to the Secretary of State which indicates the minor child no longer has the parent’s permission to have a driver’s license.
