Answer:
A power of attorney may be revoked in writing at any time by its maker, and copy may be given to the agent, as well as the school, medical providers, and others who may have relied on it. Once revoked in writing, and the agent has notice of the revocation, it is no longer effective. We are unsure whether the daughter has turned 18 or not from your question. If she has, then she is emancipated and whether she comes home will be her own choice, as a parent typically only has a right to custody until the child reaches the age of majority. Please see the links to the forms below.
Her baby will be subject to her custody, regardless of her age. A parent has a right to custody of their child unless otherwise ordered by a court, whether the parent is a minor or not.
