You should consult an expert. The professionals at Adoption Network Law Center will be happy to answer any questions that you may have and can help guide you through the adoption process.<a href="http://www.safedebthelp.com/debt-help-credit-consolidate.htm"> Teresa</a> It is my understanding that, legally, all the birthmother is responsible for is posting a notice in the paper in the city of the father’s last know residence.

Is it ethical no. It takes two to tango and he deserves to have the right to parent if he wishes. It IS his child too, like it or not. Some dads can be awesome single parents. Guaranteed, the child will find out his father was not informed someday and wonder why?<a href="http://www.resumeminers.com/About.htm"> Freckle Face</a> Is it possible yes.

Is it ethical no.

Is it ethical? No it is not. In order to have a fully legal adoption you must obtain the father's consent. Anyone who would adopt the baby without having a father's consent on record is opening themselves up for the possibility of legal problems.<a href="http://www.chefcookingware.com/989"> maybebree</a> Yes, it is possible for a mother to place a child for adoption without the father finding out.

Absolutely not. Both parents need to sign relinquishment papers, otherwise it's entirely possible for the father to dispute and possibly block or overturn the adoption (rare, but it does happen). 2. Abandoning a child to adoption is almost never ever EVER "The Best Option" **for the child**. If she decided to continue with the pregnancy, then she should pull herself together and parent the kid like the kid expects. If she knew she didn't want it, then she should've done the decent thing and had a bloody abortion.<a href="http://www.bigjobtools.com/srch/srch.php?q=%22Air+Tools%22"> 7rin</a> Two things:

Not a good idea. Besides, maybe the fathers family would be willing to raise this child and give them at the very LEAST half their ancestry. There could be as much if not more damage caused by this half baked idea. No offense, but think it ALL the way through before leaving a person with no ancestry, heritage, or medical info.<a href="http://www.greattoolsusa.com/strapping-equipment-4405"> smarmy</a> Fast forward 15-20 years and this “child” needs medical information, hmmmm, didn’t think of that huh.
