If a minor leaves home with parents permission who is obligated to support this minor financially?
Full Question:
My daughter has a minor friend who is seeking to move out of her mothers home, her mother said she is willing to sign papers to allow her to move out if that's what she chooses. I'm concerned about the minors rights and entitlements (ie her share of her child support from her father-he resides in CA-and her entitlement to Disability from her fathers claim) to assist in her financial support, if she can legally do so, also she needs medical insurance, she currently lacks medical care. I'm concerned that she be able to receive medical, dental and eye care once residing with me. I guess I'm asking how can I proceed legally to ensure she is looked after properly to protect her rights.
