The Hawaii Minor Child Power of Attorney has the primary purpose of authorizing an agent to accomplish any necessary actions required for a child’s medical or educational needs. When a parent leaves their child in the care of a trusted individual, whether they are away on business, on military deployment, or just need extra help, they can execute a copy of this form so that the caregiver will be equipped to act as the mother/father/guardian under certain circumstances. For this to occur, the legal parent/guardian will need to provide info concerning themselves, the child, and the attorney-in-fact. Once all the individuals have been registered within the document, it is important that both parties thoroughly read the instrument and then have the principal sign it in the presence of a notary public to certify the document.
