PARENTS CANNOT WITHHOLD LIFE-OR LIMB-SAVING TREATMENT FROM THEIR CHILDREN (Kaplan, rule #12)
If parents refuse permission to treat child:
1. If immediate emergency, go ahead and treat.
2. If not immediate, but still critical (e.g., juvenile diabetes) generally the child is declared a ward of the court and the court grants permission.
3. If not life-or limb-threatening (e.g., child needs minor stitches), listen to the parents
