A child’s power of attorney does not terminate the parent or guardian’s rights, duties, and responsibilities. Instead, it works as an add-on and complements existing responsibilities and obligations. Additionally, the Minor POA form does not allow the agent to make legal decisions for the child, such as giving up the child for adoption, marrying off the child, placing the child with another person whom the court has already deemed as unfit, nor limiting the parent/guardian’s rights. The document only allows the agent to decide specific needs and interests, as directed by the child’s parent.
