Minor guardianship

Minor guardianship is a legal arrangement where a responsible adult is designated by the court to care for a child who cannot live with their parents, due to reasons like neglect, abuse, or incapacity. The guardian assumes responsibilities for the child's well-being, including decisions about education, health, and daily needs, until the child reaches adulthood or a court terminates the guardianship. This process ensures stability and proper care for the child's safety and development while respecting legal procedures.
