what papers are there to sign for legal custody over a child?
I'm fifteen years old, and I've had my best friend for over eight years. Her legal guardians are her grandparents, who live in Norwalk but unfortunately they couldn't take care of her anymore. So, she moved in with her aunt and uncle in Stamford. The state thinks my friend is still in Norwalk with her legal guardians - not with her relatives.
So, my family absolutely loves her and because of these guardians, they're making her miserable as well as her friends and I, and I can never see her. They basically work her and expect things from her she can't give. (I think of it like Cinderella.) Her aunt's pregnant with the second child, and if she can't juggle her first child and my friend, how can she handle three?
Anyway, since they don't legally have her as registered in Stamford, my parents would love to take her in and have her live with us. I would love it as well. If we get her grandparents' permission, what papers would need to be signed? What would we need to go through? And her aunt and uncle can't do anything to get her back, except file a complaint, right?
Thank you ! :)

Maybe give some free advice about: Personal Finance?
your parents, her grandparents and she would probably need to go to a courthouse and have a settlement or something in family court? im not quite sure, you just go to the courthouse and inquire. they'd have to sign gaurdianship papers. almost like adoption.
