No, the child's under-age parents are the legal guardians of the child.
Their rights start where the parents' rights begin. If the parents are actively parenting, the child is thriving and nothing illegal is going on, then the grandparents are honor bound to support, not supplant, the parents. If the parents are out of the picture, the grandparents can certainly apply to become guardians of the child.
No as that would be considered child abandonment.
Yes. A father can assign his parents as guardians of his child. They will make excellent guardians while he is in jail. A father may not appoint his parents guardians if the child's natural mother is still alive and is able to care for the child. The natural parent has the prior right to guardianship, even over someone appointed by a person having equal right to be guardian. The right to appoint other people as guardians is governed by state law which may vary. You must check your own state's laws to be certain.
If the child's parents consent to the friend's parents to be appointed the legal guardians. The friend's parents would need to consent and then be appointed by the court.
In the US, parents have no rights over an adult child unless that adult child has been declared mentally incompetent by the court and the parents were appointed guardians as a result of that.
That isn't possible. If your child is under 18 parents or guardians must sign some papers. Parents must be totally involved if your child wants to pursue his or her dream of becoming an actress.
Whether the biological parent are allowed to see their child or not is entirely up to the parents and with that I mean the adoptive parents who now are the guardians of the child.
If the grandparents are legal guardians and the child is living with them, the both of you as the biological parents have to pay child support to the grandparents.
The mortgage would have to be refinanced without the participation of the adult child as cosigner. Debts incurred before marriage do not become the responsibility of a new spouse.
Because they are not the child's parents, guardians are not required to pay support.
