A parent, without being appointed guardian of
the person or guardian of the estate, or a guardian of the estate, or, if
no guardian of the estate has been appointed, a guardian of the person, of
any minor or person with a disability whose interest is not adverse to the minor
or person with a disability, may make any election and sign, without court

or (ii) Section 2057 of the Internal Revenue
Code relating to deduction of the value of certain property under that
Section. Any election so made, and any agreement so

been made and the agreement had been signed by the minor or person with a disability 
and the minor or person with a disability had been legally competent.
