Is it possible for a sibling to take custody of another sibling?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:You’d have to go through the steps of 1. getting child welfare involved 2. getting child welfare to rule that she is unfit to parent and then child welfare has to successfully sever her parental rights 3. getting child welfare to agree to let you raise the child. Sadly, that is a long uphill battle that doesn’t guarantee anything. Edit: I just realized that you don’t want to adopt your sibling you just want custody. You’d still have to follow the steps I outlined above UNLESS you could get your mom to sign over custody to you which may be easier than getting the state to.
