What is the name of your state? Texas
I am currently pregnant and am looking into adoption because I currently have 2 kids that I am unable to fully support financially. The man that I am pregnant by might be in jail for a few years and might not even be there for the birth. I also know that he does not want me to adopt the child off because he wants to stay with me and raise the child together so he would never agree to give consent for me to do it. Unless he stays out of jail, I want to adopt the child off because I can't take care of 3 kids by myself. If he doesn't go, I would be happy in keeping the child with him because he is a good father and he is good to me as well. I don't know what to do, but I guess I'm asking what the law says about the mother adopting a child off even though the father, who might be in jail, will not agree. Is it even possible?
Thanks in advance.
