An Illinois Permanency Order is a legal document issued by the state's Department of Children and Family Services (CFS) that establishes a permanent legal relationship between a child and his or her caregiver. The order can be issued after the CFS has determined that the caregiver is able to provide a safe, stable, and nurturing environment for the child. The three types of Illinois Permanency Order are Adoption, Guardianship, and Custody. Adoption is the process by which a child becomes the legal child of an adult or couple. Guardianship is the legal relationship between a child and an adult who has been legally appointed by the court to act as the child's guardian. Custody is the legal relationship between a child and an adult who has been legally appointed by the court to act as the child's custodian.

What age can a child choose not to visit a parent in Illinois? There is no specific age when a child can choose not to visit with a parent. If it is not in the best interest of the child to see that parent, then the other parent can file to modify child custody.
At What Age Can a Child Refuse Visitation in Illinois? There's no specific age at which a child can refuse visits; however, it may be harder to force a teenager to cooperate with visitation than a toddler. A child won't face sanctions for avoiding visits, but the other parent can face consequences.

If a child doesn't want to live with a parent, it might be a safety issue. If your child is old enough, ask what is happening there that makes him or her not want to go. For small children, ask them to draw a picture of life at Daddy's house. A professional counselor and lawyers might need to be involved.
Federal and state laws require HSA to find a safe, appropriate and permanent home for any child placed into foster care. A Permanency Hearing must be held within 12 months after a child is placed into protective custody. At this hearing, the court orders a permanent plan for your child.
If the court determines that visitation would seriously endanger your child's physical, mental, or emotional health, the noncustodial parent's parenting time rights may be restricted. Even in extreme cases, however, Illinois courts rarely deny parenting time entirely.
A person commits child abandonment when he or she acts without regard for the mental/physical health and safety of the child and knowingly leaves that child (under the age of 13) without supervision for 24 hours or more (supervision is defined as being in the care of a responsible person over the age of 14).
