What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? New York
I am in New York and was wondering what (if any) is the cooling off period for signing away my parental right to a child?
I had given my sperm to friends of mine (lesbian couple) who are due at the end of September and they want to send me the forms to sign away my rights so that the partner of the child's mother can proceed with the legal adoption of the child.
My only fear is that the couple may not honor our original verbal agreement of me being able to see the child or maintain a relationship with the child after the child is born.
Thanks.What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
