For mothers this is fairly simple with new child abandonment laws allowing for the leaving of babies at ERs. Even later, they there's little significant problems with turning the children over to the state.
At the final proceeding to approve the adoption.
There is always adoption.. Make sure you feel comfortable giving it up before you do. Otherwise, try raising it....you never know.
Yes they can. I have a friend that no longer had custody of her children and got pregnant and knew that she did not want another one. She got lawyer and had the paper work drawn up.
No, the child has to be born first.
tell the person who you are having a baby with and then give up your rights.
It is very rare that a Mother wants to give full custody of a child to the Father. To this all a Mother would have to do is choose to sign and give up her rights to the child in court.
Nothing
Yes,
None, unless the child's mother legally agrees in court to give you some. None, unless the child's mother legally agrees in court to give you some.
In the real world yes, in law no.
I would think that if the mother and father are not together and the mother is willing to give up custody of the child to the father than the father would have rights to the child. If the adoption papers haven't been canceled yet they will have to be signed when the baby is born saying that the mother and father give up parental rights to the child
In the state of Illinois, a biological father cannot give up his rights to the mother, but he can sign over his rights to another male. For example, a step father
No. Adoption papers cannot be sign until there is a child and legally they do not exist until after birth. Promising something before birth will have no legal stand. A mother will have the option to change her mind when she sees her child. That is only fair.
No, if what is meant is, can a biological mother of a child give custodial rights to her mother without the necessity of court procedure and/or the agreement of the biological father.
No, voluntarily relinquishing your parental rights does not excuse you from having to pay child support. However, you may be able to give the child up for adoption, in which case you would be relieved of your child support obligation.
