I understand that, as a minor, you may not have answers to the questions I'm asking below, but they're relevant questions.
Why would a court award legal custody of a minor to a person in an assisted living facility (and, as a result, presumably does not also have physical custody of you)?
Why don't your parents have custody?
That doesn't make any sense. There's no such thing as "power of attorney over" a person. A power of attorney ("POA") is a document whereby one person (the "principal") gives authority to another person (the "agent" or "attorney-in-fact") to deal with third persons on the principal's behalf. For example, I could give my co-worker power of attorney to sell my car.
You don't. Your parent or legal guardian does that. Has anyone contacted the local high school and asked about registering you? If not, why not?
Then how do you (or how does anyone else) know he's your father? Was his paternity ever established?
