what happens next? (I am talking about if a girl/woman doesn't want the baby...if that wasn't clear?)
The only reason I was asking was because I was curious if they attempt to find either parent of the child, or if dropping the baby off, legally terminates the parents rights?
Then I was wondering if they tracked the father down, could he be forced to pay child support, or if he decided to take the baby, could he force mom to pay child support.
Then that made me wonder if a mom can put a child up for adoption without the fathers consent, and what if she doesn't know who the father is?
I have a string of questions about this popping into my head, so anyone with any knowledge on this subject...even if it is not something I specifically asked feel free to enlighten me.
Oh, and don't worry, this question has nothing to do with me...or anyone having done this or thinking of doing it. No need for anyone to worry. I am just being inquisitive.
