Didn't know this rule. There has to be exceptions right? So no matter what, if a minor is involved, you have to give them 30 days? If I have a girlfriend who has a child that is not mine, I come home to her cheating on me, I still have to allow her to stay in my home?

No, you must give a tenant (any guests residing at a property for longer than 30 days, and in some places 14 days) a formal eviction notice to have them forcibly removed from a residence.

It's not because there is a child involved. I was emphasizing that the person who benefits from this is the child because it gives the mother time to find a place to live other than a car (which would constitute criminal neglect).

If the scenario you described has happened to you, and communication fails and the person refuses to leave, serving an eviction notice will be a punishment for the adult and not the child because the adult will have an eviction notice on their tenancy record, whereas the child will not because minor children legally cannot agree to tenancy contracts.
