In Arkansas, a 14-year-old can express their desire to change their legal guardian, but the process requires a petition to the court and the approval of a judge. The court will consider the child's best interests, and typically, the consent of the current guardian and the proposed new guardian is also needed. Ultimately, the decision rests with the court, which will assess the circumstances surrounding the request.
No. Only a parent or legal guardian can change the child's school.
In Arkansas, a 17-year-old can move out of their parents' home with permission from a parent or legal guardian. Without this consent, they are considered a minor and may not have the legal capacity to enter into a rental agreement or make decisions about housing on their own.
No, a legal guardian must be of the legal age that is required by the state in which the minor children reside. The legal age to become a guardian of minor children is not necessarily the same as the state's age of majority.

If the consenting parent is a legal guardian then it is valid, if for whatever reason they are not the legal guardian then it is not sufficient.
In Ohio, even with the consent of a legal guardian, you have to be 16 to get married. No. The legal guardian (sister) would need to give her permission and also permission would have to be obtained from the court (or a higher court of jurisdiction) that granted the guardianship.
