You can sign over the rights to your child to the mother herself. Before you do this realize what you are doing. Your child needs to know who their father is. You may not feel this is important right now, but to that child YOU will always be their father. If your girlfriend/wife is seeing another man and they should live together or get married, you have every right to see your child by the order of a Custody Hearing (such as: once each weekend, summer vacation and certain holidays.) The only reason you should give up your rights to custody is: Abuse of alcohol or drugs Not psychologically capable of this responsibility Refusing to pay child support Simply not wanting to be in your child's life. (be real sure of this one!) I would like to add that just because you have partial custody of your child does not tie you down from moving where you choose to move and you only have to see your child once a week and not even on holidays if this is your wish. All that should be expected from you is to be part of your child's life to let them know you love them. If you make a promise to do something with them then keep your promise! This child is part of who you are! Marcy

If you live in Missouri and the pregnant mother of your unborn child moved to California from Missouri can you sign over rights and not pay child support?

Nothing can be done until the child is born and paternity is established. If the male is not willing to acknowledge he is the father a paternity test will be necessary, before any litigation pertaining to child support, custody, visitation rights or the relinquishment of parental rights is possible. However, the issue of the biological mother moving to another state is not necessarily relevant; all states honor and enforce child support and/or visitation orders issued in another state.


Can you teminate parental rights voluntarily in NJ?

I don't think it is possible. However in some states it is mandatory that there be someone willing to adopt the child, before a court will allow the father to sign away his rights. Basically, you'll have to check the family laws of the state you're currently in to know for sure what will be allowed as far as the signing away of parental rights is concerned.

In GA if a father has nothing to do with his child and isn't on the birth certificate does he have to sign his rights away for another man to adopt the child?

I know in Montana that if there is another party to adopt the child, that the mother has to contact the biological father in several ways even if he is not listed on the BC. Either by newspaper in the law section, or written letter. And if the father does not respond, then it means you have giving up your parental rights, and the child is able to be adopted.

For a minor to be eligible for adoption they must be either, orphaned by the death of both parents; or both parents voluntarily relinquish their parental rights; or one parent relinquish parental rights so the minor child can be adopted by the new spouse of the the custodial parent; or by all parental rights be terminated by the court. A minor may only move in with another relative or a friend of the family if parental permission is granted or by a court order allowing the action.
