A legal guardian question?
I was watching an episode of Law & Order. In the episode, the officers are dealing with a cult leader, and one of the cult members was trying to escape, but fell back in after he got back on drugs.
The cult leader shows up at the hospital and tells the officers that the kid's parents had signed over legal guardianship to the cult leader (who was pretending to be a counselor of a special institute), and so they could not keep the cult leader away from the kid.
I figured this could happen and that the show more or less got the legalities correct. I was wondering, if a parent willfully (was not court ordered in any way) signs over legal guardianship to anyone, can they come back later and rescind that legal guardianship? Especially if they find out that the one to whom they signed that legal guardianship was in some way a criminal or a danger to the child?

Yes-they can petition the court to rescind the agreement.

No, your Godmother has no criminal rights or authority over you. Nor does your Aunt or the different kinfolk member (different than your mom/father). Your mom can furnish somebody else permission to take you someplace, yet..if AI demands which you have a be sure or criminal mom or father cutting-edge, then that’s mom/Dad.
