If there is an emergency situation, and a single parent has to travel overseas, where in the US can the parent leave their underage child (the child cannot get a visa to the country the parent is going to)?
Oh, wow! I recommend leaving the minor child with a close relative (non-custodial parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle) or whomever is designated as your child's guardian in your will. Ensure that the temporary guardian has power of attorney, so he or she can act as your child's representative/advocate and deal with any health, legal, or school issues in your absence. Really, though, I think this leaves your child in a very vulnerable position, so it would best to avoid it if at all possible.

This is such an odd question, I checked the OP's previous posts. This child has a father. Leave the child with him.
