I was 17 when he got my pregnant he was 21. I had to have an emergency c-section done when I was in labor. I was under alot of medication and he signed the acknoledgement of paternity. I would like to take his name off and have father listed as unknown. But i would like to do this without a dna test being done. One has never been done and i want to keep it that way. Please some one give me some advise I would really appreciate it alot.

okay i understand why some of you may think i'm wrong or what ever. but here is a little back ground for you. my step mom had my son token because of my son's father use to treat me like real crap. he had my prostituting for his drug money and to take care of him. now that my parents have custody they are getting tired and want a break but wont give my son back and in the mean time they are sending him to his house for days at a time. the house is a known drug house and also his girl friend is a minor who lives with her mother. i just want to put a end to this cuz my son is not going to his house for visits he's getting pawned off there and my son's father is never there or when he is he's too busy getting high. and i fear my son's safty and this is alls i can think of doing until i gain custody back.

I don't think there's any way that you can if he won't sign away his rights and a DNA test would confirm he's the father.

Not sure with the newer laws if you can do that...but I do want to point one thing out that is WRONG. He CAN NOT sign "away his rights". UNLESS 1. A DNA test is done and proven his 2. Then the child in question is being adopted by someone else. He CAN NOT just sign off rights.
Even though he is on the birth certificate, remember this. If you were NOT married, he, by law, has NO rights until a DNA test is done. All of that has to be done through courts. So, if i was you, i'd leave it alone, and then when someone comes along that wants to be the dad, take it from there. But if you have remained out of the system so far, don't mess with it!!

I understadn where your coming from but, when you signed the afadavit int he hospital that was as legal as a DNA test or it is now days becasue With my two children who are not even a year apart and this was very recent i just ave birth to my daughter ont he 28th of feb. there father and I are not married and we signed an afidavit and the notary republic explained to us that it was as legal as having a DNA done, but he legally had no rights to my children because we were not married, the only way to have your childs father taken of the birth certificate is for him to sign awayhis rights im sorry that there is no help for you that ic an supply but you may want to consider speaking with a lawyer to find out if there is anything you can do, you can also file a unfit parent case against him which if that goes through and you win he will have no rights to see or spend time with your child.

The only way I know of is for him to allow someone else to "adopt" this child. In allowing this he relinquishes all paternal control over this child and gives that to another.
But YOU were 17, or younger, when YOU made the decision to have unprotected sex. And YOU became pregnant by this man who was 21. In my state he would have gone to prison for having sex with a minor. But that aside it was YOUR choice to have sex, right?
He stepped up to the plate and claimed his child and you now want your child to not know their father?
In my state if he acknowledges paternity of a child then he is required to pay child support.
I guess I don't understand why you'd even want to do this.
Good Luck!

He has to sign his rites away because he took acknowledgment for the baby already..Good Luck you should really see some legal advice also if you think he is NOT the father take a DNA and he can be removed..

Well im not sure if you can do that but i tell you what if you figure out a way let me know cause i wan my daughters daddys name off of hers. I have asked around to several people (DHS, lawyers) and even people that have had it done. The only sure way that I have found if it hasn't been 90 days since he signed it.

Absolutely and totally no, she cannot tamper with a Birth Certificate, what she can do if she wants to is change the surname but that has to be done by Deed Poll and she cannot do this without your consent anyway. Once a Birth Certificate has been issued and the details logged that Certificate stays for eternity, if any changes are made like the above mentioned then a legal document is attached to the Birth Certificate which substantiates the name change. Rest assured she cannot do this. See a solicitor about getting access because the longer you leave it the worse you will look and the better she will come off. Best of luck.

I think that you can only get it taken off if he signs away his rights to the child.

NOT SURE YOU CAN GET IT TAKEN OFF....I DON'T KNOW YOUR SITUATION BUT IF YOUR DOING IT FOR SPITE YOU MIGHT WANT TO RETHINK IT. LATER IN YOUR CHILDS IT MIGHT COME BACK TO SLAP YOU IN THE FACE....BUT IF YOU HAVE A LOGICAL REASON I THINK YOUR BEST BET IS SEEING A LAWYER.
