Loco Parentis - The legal doctrine under which an individual assumes parental rights, duties, and obligations without going through the formalities of legal adoption.
I am not a lawyer but I can tell you that every state has some type of Loco Parentis law on their books. The difference is in how it is awarded or justified by the court. For this you need to speak to a lawyer. in Michigan.
If you have a situation where you feel you need to assume parental rights over a child but cannot afford a lawyer contact child protective services(CPS). CPS can place the child in your custody which is a form of Loco Parentis. If you can afford a lawyer than contact a family law attorney for help. ]
