Can a person give a no contact order on behalf of their adult child?

In this scenario, the adult child lives in the same house at the parent, the adult child is healthy and of sound mind, and the adult child does not want the no contact order.

The adult child and the recipient of the no contact order want to maintain a relationship, but the parent does not want them to have a relationship.

If the parent sends a notarized cease and desist letter requesting no contact with her adult child, does it stand if the adult child continues contact with the recipient?
