Can you legally perform CPR on a child who's parent has denied consent. I know that legally you can't but because of a recent argument I'd like supporters and sources as proof. Not an ethics question?

You cannot do CPR without their consent due to liability concerns primarily unless you are in some way responsible for the child, like a teacher or caregiver.
Overall this will also depend on local laws and regulations like the Good Samaritan Law, which does vary state to state (California revised their law in 2009).
I recommend that all my students if ever faced with a situation where you have been denied the ability to help to someone in obvious need to call 911 at the very least. This way victims who later pass out, thereby implicitly giving consent, can get immediate help OR if they really don't want to go they can refuse care by EMS.
Hope this helps you.

Is it legal for a cop to search a car based off the driver's consent but the only owner of the car was in the passenger seat and not informed about the search whatsoever?
The operator of the vehicle (driver) is legally responsible for the contents of the vehicle and can give consent to search the vehicle. As long as the consent was given voluntarily, not coerced, and the person consenting has actual or apparent authority over the vehicle. This is considered a "third-party consent scenario." The third-party driver of the vehicle can consent to a search while the owner is present as a passenger. Rodriguez, 497 U.S. at 186. A critical factor to consider is whether the owner/passenger objected to the search.So the question is: Did the owner/passenger object to the search?" If not, I don't think the owner has an argument.
