Even in criminal cases, you have to have a parent or guardian present when an underaged suspect is being questioned-the same goes probably in an immigation center. If the child is travelling alone, I suppose a lawyer should be present.

It would not be legal to interview a child without an independent person present acting in loco parentis (in the absence of a parent, or on behalf of the parent), for the child.

The only way i could see a child being interviewed without parents present would involve social services and someone from them being present.

I think that it is preferable for the parents to be there but if they are no available an adult acting in the childs interests can be present.

Did they interview the child are are you asking a hypothetical question? If YES to the former - what exactly were the circs?

i'm uncertain that I understand this question the two.. do you propose in case you do not have your infants could you nevertheless be considered a verify? If it rather is your question i think no. in any different case. I trust many posters.. umm.. you may't be a verify in case you haven't any longer any infants..

I think it isn't, but if child smuggling is suspected then maybe the circumstances would differ.

as long as there is another adult present to protect the child's interests.
