When you have a child in your care and custody and the parent has left for an extended period of time it is important for you to obtain some type of guardianship of that child.
If no guardianship is established you as the caregiver of that child cannot: obtain medical care, register that child for school, and you do run the risk of that parent coming back and claiming kidnapping.
Cover your butt and get the correct paperwork on file with the court in your county. If you need help with these papers please let us know!
