Can a minor be served a court summons in Texas without parents present?

In Texas, a "child" is a person below the age of 18 who is not otherwise emancipated by being married, enlisted in the military, or had their disability (i.e., childhood) removed by a competent court of law. As such, a "child" cannot be forced to attend court without a parent(s), a guardian, or a court appointed attorney ad litem. To force a child to come to court, the parent, guardian, or court appointed attorney ad litem is served with the a "subpoena duces tecum" and that person is ordered to produce the "child" in court for examination, much like having a person bring a paper or other object to court. So, in English - No, a minor cannot be served a court summons in Texas without parents (or guardian) present in court, nor can a child be compelled by the court or held in contempt for failure to appear if the service is upon the child only. The parent or guardian CAN be punished for failing to bring the child to court, however, including being held in contempt of court and put into jail or fined or both.
