If a warrant is issued for any child whose presence is required by the court, any law enforcement officer may take the child into custody and bring the child before the court. In lieu of taking custody of the child, the court or any officer processing the warrant may accept the verbal or written promise of the child's parents, guardian, or custodian served with the summons to be personally responsible for bringing the child before the court as required by the summons or the warrant or at any other time to which the hearing has been adjourned or continued as determined by the court.
