What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Mississippi
I'm sure similar questions have been asked, but here I go anyway.
My son's girlfriend lives in Michigan. She wants to attend college here. She is a junior in high school. Is there an "educational guardianship" that we can file in order to help her establish residency in Mississippi? She is a very smart girl, and with her test scores, she would be able to attend for free on scholarships that she would be awarded here.
Assuming that the parents are OK with it, it may be possible. However, you need to consider:
1. Check with your local school district to see what is required. They will tell you exactly what you need to do and what documents must be submitted.
2. Make sure that you have consulted with your attorney about the liabilities that you would be taking on. What happens if the child is injured or killed? What happens if the child gets into trouble with the law or damages some property? What happens if the child gets into an auto accident? What happens if the child just becomes disobedient to you?
3. How old is your son? How old is the girl? Depending on the ages, if your son has sex with the girl (and it will happen), he could be committing a crime and you could be charged for allowing it to happen.
4. Are you prepared to deal with the possibility that the girl would become pregnant on your watch?
5. What are you going to do with the distraction between the lovebirds causes their grades to drop to the point where her scholarship dreams go down the drain?
And lots more potential problems.
Frankly, if you all decide to go through with it, I think you need to have your heads examined. The teen is going to spend years away from her family just because she might be able to save some money on college (she'd probably be better off to spend the time and energy working on her schooling to get her grades to the point where she could get a scholarship, anyway).
