If an American citizen mother gives birth in Italy the father is an Italian citizen is the child American or Italian or both?

In: Citizenship and Marriage, US Constitution [Edit categories]

Answer:

Both and later the child can keep both citizenship's or just take one, but any child born to an American citizen is an American no matter where they are born. I would go to the embassy and get my child their passport papers.
