What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Maryland My son's girlfriend gave birth to a set of twins 2months early on Monday of this week (a boy and girl). Their relationship during the pregnancy has been very rocky. My son was not present during the birth because the mother was Medevac'd to a hospital while having a sonogram. My son went to visit the mother and children on Tuesday. The mother did not make it known to anyone at the hospital that he was the father. She named the children without any input from him prior to him arriving at the hospital. She gave them her last name. During his visit at the hospital, the affidavit of parentage was not mentioned. He is not contesting parentage at all. The children will have to remain at the hospital for at least 2 months because they are premature. My son and the mother also have a 5 year old son together who does have my son's last name and he is paying child support for him.
Questions: What, if any, rights does my son have? Should he be allowed to visit the children at the hospital without their mother? Does he have any right as far as naming the children, either first or last name? What rights will the affidavit of parentage give him?What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
