Can a father give up his parental rights without someone else adopting the child?

Either the biological father has to sign away his rights as a parent, or you can go to an adoption attorney and take that route. If the biological is not active in the child's life, it may be fairly simple. If he is active, the biological can fight for his rights and you will probably end up in court. My husband and I went through this and are going through the phase that I hear most people go through who do legal adoptions. Our children have sought out the biological and he(the biological) is reaking havok on our household-its terrible, so just understand the process and the consequence of your loving action. It can come back to bite you later-possibly, not always. Remember kids always think the grass is greener on the other side. Best of luck though.

∙ 13y agoMy mother got pregnant with me and my biological father wasn't in the picture. She ended finding a wonderful man 3yrs later who did put his name on my birth certificate. They just said he was my father. I never had my biological fathers name on mine.

∙ 11y agoYes, a father can be allowed by the court to give up his parental rights even when the child is not up for adoption. This means he will still have to pay child support though. If you mean he would sign his parental rights over to another man, no. There would still be a mother in the picture and she would be the only one with parental rights.

∙ 16y agoNo, the father, can take custody of the child but this does NOT take custody away from you just because you wanted to give your child up for adoption.

What can you do to get your child back from a person who said he was the father and got a court order along with a restraining order and he's not on the birth certificate?
Courts do not grant parental rights, custody and restraining orders without evidence. They do not grant custody to a man who only "says" he's the father or to someone who is "presumed" to be the father. They establish paternity first. You should contact an attorney who can review your situation and explain your options.Courts do not grant parental rights, custody and restraining orders without evidence.
