The first issue to address is the matter of "sending a child to a friend". The biological parents of a child are responsible legally and financially for that child unless the court has officially relieved them of that responsibility. Parents cannot arbitrarily "give" a minor child to a friend even *temporarily without the necessity of a written agreement stating how the child is to be cared for, how long and the terms relating to monetary obligations. *Temporary non legal custody, is generally viewed as 90 days or less, any longer period requires the parent(s) and named caregiver to follow prescribed legal procedures. The person with whom the child is residing has no legal obligation to keep and support said child. If the parents are not willing resume custodial obligations the current caregiver should contact the state's department of children's protection services for assistance.
