you would probably have to talk to an attorney. if the child is in foster care, perhaps relatives could adopt them?

i don't know the law. an attorney would be more helpful.

If the child is legally adopted I don't think there is much that he can do to get custody, if that's what you mean. He must have signed some kind of termination of parental rights. Even if he didn't waive his rights it has been a long time and it may not be in the child's best interest. This doesn't mean that he shouldn't make an attempt to be in the child's life, but if his crimes had anything to do with violence he may want to approach this with patience and care because he should not make the new parents or the child feel threatened in any way. I hope it works out for them all.

Meaning the child was adopted after they went in??? As far as I know the only people able to adopt child would be a family member or someone the parents made arrangements with (tho only if they had rights to their children at the time). But if it's been several years and the child was adopted and parents voluntarily signed their rights away not in foster care then it's pretty unlikely that the adoption would be reversed. If the child's in foster care (hasn't been adopted) then depending upon who wants to adopt the child (their relationship if any to child or child's bio family), and their ability to meet the standards required by the child welfare agency in charge there shouldn't necessarily be a problem.

Sorry to say but you both were wards of the state at the time which means you lost all your rights. There is nothing for you to do. You may just try to get visitation but you will not get the child back nor this late in the game would it be good for the child to be ripped out of a stable home. Leave it and take as a life lesson my friend. We all make mistakes and I am sorry you went through all this. Must have been painful especially dealing with it in prison where you can't show emotions.

If his parental rights were signed over on official paperwork, or a judge permanently terminated his parental rights, there is no way he can get them back. By signing the paperwork, he was saying at the time that he no longer wanted to be a parent and therefore he no longer is one. If a judge terminated his rights, for whatever reason, they are gone and only under very unusual circumstances would they be reinstated by another judge in another court session. Likewise for the mother. If she signed over her rights or a judge terminated them, then only under very unusual circumstances would they be reinstated.

In another proverb: "If you can't do the time, don't do the crime". Children are always the victims of whatever trouble their parents get into. That is why most children are better off if adopted instead of being witnesses to their parents breaking the law and if drugs are involved, by law it is child abuse to expose them to the drug misuse/abuse perpetrated by the parents. Authorities in all cases try to protect the children from being exposed to drugs and if the parents refuse to give their drugs up, then the kids are taken away and in most cases parental rights are terminated.

Well I'm sure there has to be a way, they can't just take away someone's parental rights, unless he signed them away. Incarceration doesn't mean they can take ur kids away. Get a lawyer hun, I think this is too serious of a question to ask on answers.

OK who's wanting custody?

What were the two parents incarcerated for? And for how long?

Not enough information.

Pat Answer: This is something for the courts to decide.

definite, in certainty the toddlers in Ontario over 7 years previous would desire to consent to the adoption. yet I would desire to declare back that if a newborn did no longer consent to adoption and would desire to no longer flow back to oldsters, then what? i think of those issues would desire to be reported till now ability adoptive mum and dad are interior the photograph. i think of guardianship is physically powerful for people who've links to the delivery mum and dad, yet then they'd desire to as a replace be long term wards of foster care with persisted touch with their mum and dad than be accompanied. If it is truly an option and could artwork extra helpful for the newborn than a sparkling confirm, then why no longer? What we gained't lose sight of is that no adoptive confirm is in this altruistically. there are various folk who're extraordinarily darn cool (lol), yet interior the tip all of us started this adventure to be mum and dad. definite we are purely taking in toddlers who desire a house, however the tip result's the desire to be mum and dad ourselves, with each and all the legal rights. If guardianship replaced into on the table, i'm no longer one hundred% that i could have been as gung ho, and can have stayed as an prolonged term foster source. yet definite, in answer to the question, the newborn would desire to have a say.

You mean the dad adopted and then got put in jail? Go to the social worker in charge of the case, get an attorney and follow their advice. for encouragement, listen to ttb.org.

if you are asking how to reverse an adoption - it can not be done. It is a legal, binding termination of parentage and the adoptive family has full rights.
