I don't know about Indiana state laws on this matter, but Arkansas state says that the unwed mother is the sole gardian of the unborn child. I went threw this 2 1/2 years ago. I made the mistake of putting my ex's name on the bith certificate and he ran off with my child i had to get a lawyer and it was very costly. Hope this helps you....

Sole custody and control

Sole custodial rights are only granted to the parent with whom the child will reside.
That depends on the state. In Mississippi, the age of majority is 21. American Samoa is 14. How it will affect child support is also variable.
Yes. Even sole custody fathers are often ordered to pay. The reverse is not true as more custodial fathers pay child support than all the non-custodial mothers do. see links below
No, and you would be breaking a ton of laws as you have to get custody rights first, and have the other parent either stripped of their rights or they have denounced their rights. Otherwise, a judge is definitely going to send you to jail for kidnapping and will just as likely deny any appeal for custody.

No, but it depends on your state. In Alabama and Nebraska it is 19, in Mississippi and Pennsylvania it is 21.
Usually the case will be closed and the custodial parent will have to re-file in the state where she/he resides.
Yes and should as the mothers usually end up denying access. see links below
It depends on the state laws where you live and the stipulations of your divorce decree. Generally, you cannot move the child without the consent of the non-custodial parent and the court. The visitation order would require modification.
A person can give up their parental rights in the state of Oklahoma. A petition is needed to submit to the court and both custodial parents need to sign it.
Yes, unless the child is adopted.
You would have to call the court house for legal papers on terminating parental rights.
A minor can not choose where to live. That is up to the parents or the court depending on the details. If your non-custodial parent who lives out of state wants you to live with him/her, they have to petition for custody unless your custodial parent will consent to the change and join in a modification of the custody order.
It depends on what the will says. If there is no will, it may be divided evenly. Check the state laws in your jurisdiction.
No. You need to contact the state that has custody to determine your rights. If you go and get the child you may be guilty of custodial interference.
Mississippi IS the name of the state.
