How long can a parent go without seeing a child before its considered abandonment in the state of Pennsylvania
A bit of almost a few years
48hrs unless its with someone or it is 18
Depends on the meaning of "seeing".
Before the child is considered abandoned? Three months of physical absence and/or failure to provide for the child is considered abandonment and the courts may involuntarily terminate parental rights if a motion is filed for the same. It should be noted, however, that termination of parental rights does not automatically terminate child support obligation.
Yes it could.
Interpretive, Wisconsin has no specific time frame in the laws.
California has not specific law as regards this issue.
In Texas, a child is no longer considered a runaway at the age of 17. Once a child turns 17, they are legally considered an adult and are free to come and go as they please without being classified as a runaway.
of course! a family is anything dearly close to you! =]
I believe it may have been. I also remember seeing it as a play on PBS when I was a child about 30yrs. ago.
In Wisconsin, a child may be considered abandoned if a parent or guardian has failed to provide care or contact for a significant period. Specifically, if a parent has not communicated with or visited their child for at least 6 months, it may lead to legal considerations of abandonment. However, the context and circumstances surrounding the absence are also important factors in determining abandonment. Legal advice should be sought for specific cases.
