unwed mother father of child wants child to have his name

[agg1204]

So if Mom gets married one day to another man (not baby daddy) and takes on his name which more times that not that is what happens, the baby still has her maiden name because no father that is involved in his child's life will ever allow his child to take on another mans name. At that point baby has mom's maiden name which is neither of his parent's names. Does it just not make more sence to give the baby the dad's last name as his will not change?

Had I known you then, and you'd done that..I would have smacked you upside the head

But wouldn't it have been Chocolate CupCake Banana I, II, III and IV?

I was at the doctor's office the other day, and, no joke, there was a little boy named Money Maker! He couldn't have been more than 2! Those parents should be arrested for that,

FYI

On both of my childrens birth (married) my husband was in the room each time when the nurse came in to have me fill out the birth certificate. Only I was allowed to do this for listing name for baby and name of father. They don't even look at dad. I asked the nurse about this later after the second time. Only mom is allowed to fill it out. I could have put under father, unknown or Santa Clause. I don't know what happens if the father brings it to court. I suppose after a DNA test for paternity he could have his name on the Birth Certificate, I have heard of this being done. Does your daughter really want to go through all that. Or do you think dad will skip out later.

My sister actually did that, put father unknown. She wasn't married, father was there for birth but guy was really a loser and did take off 3 months after birth. There was actually a fight at my parents and the guy had baby in his arms and was going to take off with baby. When the police were called they asked if he was listed as the father on the birth certificate, no he wasn't, The police made him hand the baby to my sister or he would be charged with kidnapping. If he was listed as father the police could not have done anything since it's not kidnapping if it is your child. It was also easier for my sisters husband to adopt her son when she got married to different guy 3 years later.

There is so much wrong in your post, I don't know where to begin.


As you were married, your husband was the legal father of the children, no matter WHAT name you would have decided to place on the BC.

Having a name on the BC in an unmarried situation does not determine legal paternity. Likewise, NOT placing a name on a BC does not NEGATE legal paternity if legal paternity has been established.

I don't even want to get into TPR and adoption. It's not nearly as simple as you make it out to be unless Dad's costitutional rights were blatantly violated. In which case...guess what? Dad may very well have grounds to revisit the 'adoption' if he so chooses.
