This question depends on what state you live in. Check out your local laws regarding the policies of the local law enforcement in the state.
This may seem like a general answer of your problem, but procedures do vary from state to state.
I do know where you are coming from, though. My girlfriend and I have to use daycare for our child. When you have to work, you do not have a choice.
If you do not feel anything has happened to your child, as a parent, stick to your guns. Do not ever feel that you are powerless to authorities just because they carry badges and guns. You know what is right for your child and they had just better live with that.
Keep an eye out. If someone does try to question your child, make sure you are there to make sure that they understand you are the parent, and that nobody has the right to talk to your child without your presence.
Do not ever let anyone push you around when it comes to what you feel is right about being a parent. You are the one who raises the child, and anyone else can go and mind their own business.
Good luck with your problems.

Yes! Investigator can asked /interogated your / or any body's child for somthing happened in the day care (!) or any other reaseon, for the sake of truth. I find nothing wrong with it. But it should be under the friendly manner which could not effect the child any way. Your child is going to day care.He is passing time in day care. He have to faced many situations in the day care. The interogation should not be any thing more than those situations.So without guardian's consent investigator can asks questions - ofcourse, I repeat, it should be in friendly manner.

You are the parent and you have the choice as to weather your child talks to the investigators or not? If you don't want him/her to then let them know that your not comfortable with it. I am not trying to sway you either way but, you have to be present since your child is a minor and when and if they speak to your child if you don't like the questions or if it is making your child uncomfortable you can tell them to stop the questioning. Depending on what and why they are getting investigated for you may want to talk to your child yourself and then let the police know what your child said and they will be able to decide if the information your child knows is what they are looking for and if they even want to proceed with talking to him/her. Good luck to you.

Think this over. There will be a trained ,gentle investigator. He will not be "grilled" like on TV! There is a chance the investigator MIGHT learn something you would want to know. They aren't being investigated for playing tiddly winks-he may have a piece of a puzzle. Let him speak to them! You might be glad you did.

IF it's in the states,police can ONLY question minors without parental consent when a felony has been commited.

Some states allow an "adult"(Aunt,Uncle...)IF the parent isn't readily available.

As long as your child is not of legal age, if they question s/he then you have the right to be present. You must consent to the questioning, therefore have the right to refuse to allow it.
