    Guradianship of non-related child
    My husband and I are moving to Pennsylvania and we want to take our sons girlfriend with us. Her mom has given her permission to go with us. Do we have to go to court and a judges approval or can we just sign a paper and be done since we have the OK from mom. Is court mandatory?
