The Prudent Parenting law became effective on June 12, 2014. Children’s Administration has developed new Caregiver Guidelines to assist caregivers in deciding activities for dependent children placed in their homes. This document was created with caregiver input to assist you in making decisions about normal childhood activities and to know what activities still require approval by the child’s worker or court order. If families have questions, they can check with their licensor or the child’s worker for more information.
