Hi, I just happen to be a Notary...Having a document notarized only indicates that both people willingly signed the document & personally appeared in front of a Notary to sign the document...that way neither person can claim that their signature was forged. That being said, it has nothing to do with the legal ramifications of the content of the document. Your friend should consult an attorney.

It is likely not legal because the law takes precedent. We are not talking about borrowing money. The court takes a child's interest first and then follow the state law on division of properties. Nor could one parent deny the other parent visiting right, agreement or not, unless the court finds that one parent is unfit through medical or social workers. Nobody can give away or take away parental rights from the other partner on their own.

No, not if it is not a court order. This letter could be introduced as evidence against them as a lack of character, but it still is NOT enforceable.
