Legal Question in Family Law in Ohio

I am a single Father of a 7 yr old. I have sole legal and residential custody of my son. Mother is absent and on the run from child support. I'm trying to help a lifelong friend and her 3 kids move to Florida (I'll call her B and my friend below C {because they both are named Becky}. My good friend C (I'm her 10yr old daughter's God-Father) has offered to to care for my son while I help B move so that I do not have to withdraw him from school. I may be gone for 2-3 months. What kind of paperwork do I need to draw up and where would I need to file it (or do I need to even involve the court {prefer not to due to me being on Social Security and not able to really afford the court fees}) so that C will be able to interact with his school and deal with any medical issues that may arise in my absence. Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

Depending on the amount of time and how much power you would like C to have you may be able to draft paperwork without involving the Court. My biggest concern would be about Mother not having an information about this. An attorney would need to review your custody documents to determine what is applicable in your case. Find someone who can do a free consult or call your local Legal Aid office.
