Yes. What matters is here and now and if a baby is here that baby has rights to be supported by his parents. There are condoms if you don't want to be a parent. No amount of "talking" will prevent pregnancy. You must take action to prevent it.
Yes, until they are adopted. If they have to be in foster care first you have to pay. Once adopted the child becomes the adoptive parents child in every way, including financial obligations like child support if the parents were to divorce and have custody agreements.
First off you have to ask yourself why you were forced to give up your parental rights. If you gave no indication of helping to support that child, (not accusing you here) but were into drugs, served prison time, etc., these are good reasons for having these parental rights taken away from you. If you did none of the above and you really wanted to be part of your child's life please seek legal counsel and start fighting for these rights. Yes, you can be forced to pay child support even though you don't have parental rights. This is your child and you should want to help pay for the care of raising your child. If you don't trust the mother as to how she spends the money to send, then you can have papers drawn up by a lawyer stating that you want to see all receipts as to how the mother is spending the money for that child.
no. because you are no longer the legal father.
Yes it is still your child. It is your responsibility to support it financially even if you don't to support it in other ways.
Yes, until/unless the child is adopted.
Yes sadly.
yes
No, the father has to pay child support for both children. Of course the child that decides to live with him will be treated as he/she were when you were both married, but the child you have will still continue to receive child support by law!
In general, parental rights are terminated either preparatory to an adoption, or after a trial in which it is determined that the parent is unfit. In any case, termination of parental rights does not, in itself, terminate child support.
surrendering parental rights will free you from child support obligations only if pursuant to surrendering the rights, the child is ADOPTED. this does not include temporary custody in most states. This also only applies to FURTHER child support obligations, and does not change any "owed" child support, not paid up to the date of adoption.
No one can make you do anything you dont want to do. If you give the baby up for adoption it is your choice!! They cant tell you wat to do when it comes to your child. But think if you can take care of the child. Good Luck!
In general, parental rights are terminated either preparatory to an adoption, or after a trial in which it is determined that the parent is unfit. In any case, termination of parental rights does not, in itself, terminate child support. You need to consult with an attorney or legal advocate in your jurisdiction. Note that you cannot simply give up parental rights in order to avoid child support. Generally there must be another adult who is willing to take over your legal responsibilities and financial obligations as the child's parent.
Why has he abandon his children and why are you having a child with him? He should have fought for them. He cannot stop child support without an adoption taking place.
He can give up his parental rights (this usually happens as part of the adoption process), but his support obligation continues until/unless the child is adopted. There is no "right not to pay child support."
Too young, can't support a child, child abuse situtation, death of parents, a feeling of being helpless and not know who they can turn to for help.
It's possible to give up his rights but he will not get out of paying child support.
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.
it is good because kids get homes.Couples who cant have biological children have a chance to have a child and to give it the love that the child deserves.
You contact the Children Protective Service but you better have good reasons for it because you have to give up your parental rights to the state and you will probably not get it back. The court will decide if it's a good idea to send him or not. If you mean you want to give the child up for adoption you contact an adoption agency. Both parents have to agree to this. You will be paying child support until the child is adopted.
If the parents are unable to care for the child accurately, adoption is a great alternative. Adoption allows the mother to carry out her pregnancy and also provides an opportunity for another family to receive a child of their dreams.
You would have to check the law in your state. Many states will allow this type of adoption. I know that California allows this type of adoption.
It depends....Was it only a matter of the child's last name being changed or did you file a Petition to Adopt the child? For you to be the legal parent of this child, then you would have had to file the necessary court paperwork to adopt the child (i.e. petition for adoption) and the court would have had to enter a decree of adoption (i.e. granted your petition for adoption). If the child's name were changed absent an adoption action and decree then you are not legally responsible to support the child.
No. And the child is not given to a agency. If you wish to adopt your brothers child you need to do a homestudy. Without it the court will not approve the adoption. If your brother can not take care of his he can give you temporary custody. He will then pay child support to you. After the home study you can apply for adoption. You will need a lawyer and so will your brother.
You can only give the child up for adoption if both parents agree. If he doesn't want that he can get custody and you will pay child support.
