@alle2011, well im stuck bc he wont sign over his rights but wont do anything for her..its very irritating

Don't beat yourself up about it girl, I'm sure there's a way to fix it. I know how you feel because Im basically stuck on what to do and how to even go about the process. I've just heard that the father has to signs over his rights in order for us moms to do what we want. I've also heard if the father is not present in the child's life for so long, he automatically loses his rights as a parent? All of it is just confusing..

@alle2011, i feel like i made a huge mistake giving her his last name

@babyleon, i think ill call the place tomo and ask

I think the dad has to sign over his rights before you can change your child's last name? I'm wanting to change my sons last name to my boyfriends when we get married because hes been his dad even though he isnt biologically his. The deadbeat dad isnt in the picture and hasnt been since my son was a few months old. However my son has my last name

I think it does
