How do you send a child to juvenile detention?
You can't send a child to juvenile detention. That would be done by a juvenile court after the child was found responsible for some unlawful act. If you know a child who needs the attention of the juvenile authorities you should visit the juvenile court and ask to speak with an advocate. Most all juvenile court systems have a procedure for taking custody of a child who needs help and placing that child in foster care or a residential program. In some jurisdictions that would involve filing a petition for a Child In Need of Services at the juvenile Court. If you call your town offices there may an agency you could contact for more information.

Can a parent take a child to court for being unmanageable?
The parent wouldn't be "taking their child to court". Rather, the parent would be asking the court to intercedeand possibly take over custody of the child. The laws vary regarding unruly minors. Each jurisdiction has a statutory procedure for dealing with juveniles. Those procedures include the following.A parent who has knowledge that a juvenile has committed a delinquent act or is out of control and in need of supervision may file a complaint with the juvenile court. The complaint will be reviewed on its merits. If the complaint is sufficient, it will become a formal petition and the parents and child have the right to be represented by an attorney. The court may place the child in a juvenile detention facility or in the custody of the state department of human services depending on the circumstances. The juvenile judge will determine whether the child should remain in detention or in shelter care or be released to the custody of his or her parents or guardians.You should visit the juvenile court in your jurisdiction and ask to speak with an advocate for more information.
