I am pregnant with my ex-boyfriends baby and he wants to give up all parental rights to the baby. i need to know what forms need to be filled out and the process. if someone could email me the information and forms that would be helpful. castroah08@gmail.com

Unless you're married, he doesn't HAVE any rights to give up. He'd have to either (a) sign the birth certifcate or (b) sign an acknowledgement of paternity, or (c) file a paternity case in the local family court, in order to be recognized as the father. Unless he does one of those things (or you bring a paternity case against HIM, or the state brings a case against him on due to you/child getting state aid), he'll be a legal stranger to the child - with no more rights or responsibilities than the mail man.

My husband has 2 boys that's his exwife doesn't let him see. I what legal forms does he need to give up his parental rights? Will he still be paying their child support? Does his exwife have to agree for him to give up his rights? Please email me with any helpful information you have. Amanda1761@yahoo.com

Thanks

A court will not allow him to give up his rights unless there is another parent to adopt so that the children have two parents supporting them. He certainly can file a contempt petition if she is not allowing him his visitation.
