If the mother is proven unfit or incapable of caring for the child the court can order the child be removed from her physical custody. It is, however, extremely rare for the court to take away alll the rights of a mother to her child.
No, both biological parents are obligated to care for their child. However, it depends on the circumstances and the court orders in the case.
lost the child to whom?
Yes, provided they have learned their lesson. Unfortunately, the same is not applied to mothers with criminal backgrounds.
i think the birth mothers where there to take care of a biological mothers child to help out
Boyfriend or husband (unless he is the biological father) has no legal right to the child at all. The mother can try to go for full custody though.
file for custody
If no orders are established and you were not married to him, you already have sole custody.
Only if the court determines it would be in the best interests of the child to award such custody. The biological parents and/or an immediate relative of either would be considered before a person with no legal or biological ties to the child.
only if mum has custody
no
NO! It's child abuse for which you can be arrested and your child removed from your custody.
Unless the biological father has relinquished custody, he can ask the court to grabt custody in case the mother dies or cannot take care of herself.
