Can a minor be questioned by police without a parent in Mississippi?

Define "questioned by police." There are no restrictions on officers simply talking to minors - more has to be known about the circumstances. Is the juvenile in custody? Is the juvenile being talked to by the School Resource Officer at school? Is the juvenile conversing with the officer, or during a traffic stop, or a momentary contact on the street? What?
