It is the custom for God Parents to be in attendance at the baptism of a child. They are the ones who take on the responsibility to see that the child is brought up in the faith. They may also act as guides in the child life, encouraging the child to grow up in wisdom to ba able to lead a good and wholesome life. However the first responsibility lies with the parents and not with the God Parents. For parents to place all responsibility upon the God Parents to guide the child through the early stage of their lives, is tantamount to the neglecting of the child by the parents.

One may choose another Grand Parent but again this places the responsibility upon them. It is a sign that the parents wish to place upon others what they should be doing.

Can your godparent be your confirmation sponsor?

Yes indeed, your godparent can be your Confirmation Sponsor. However, your godparent does not have to be your Confirmation Sponsor. It can be anyone who exemplifies leading a good Christian life. You might pick a family member, neighbor, favorite teacher, or if you have a special bond with the person you could even ask a nun or priest. However, this person should be someone you see often throughout your life.

Can a person be a godparent if they are of Morman faith?

Oh, dude, technically speaking, anyone can be a godparent regardless of their faith. It's more about the role they play in the child's life than their religious beliefs. So, like, if a Mormon wants to be a godparent, they can totally do it. It's not like there's a godparent eligibility test based on religion or anything.
