Okay moms, i need help. I live in Missouri. I have two kids. They both have the same dad (he left them) but he didn’t sign my youngest birth certificate but he did my oldest. Can I move out of state with them? He has zero contact with my kids.

In Arkansas you have to have the other parent's permission. How long has he had no contract with them?

@momof3cuties, a month or so and before that it was just occasional

@kjbailey2016 you will need to ask a lawyer about the laws there. My husband adopted my son without his sperm donor knowing. He wasn't on the brith certificate and never saw him
Here a parents loses right if a yr with no contract

Most states, no. I would go through the court system though. Get child support, maybe ask about filing abandonment etc

In mo i think it's 6 months and they'll get abandonment. Just talk to a lawyer.

You should be able to move and just file in a different state. You just have to wait 3-6months after you move to file at a new state. Every state has different rules. Check with a lawyer. Get different opinions from at least 3 different lawyers.
I personally wish I would’ve moved first. My daughters dad was MIA and I made the mistake of starting the process to request to move. X showed up to court and immediately requested a geographical restriction even though he had not seen her in months. Judge gave it to him as an “opportunity” to make up with his daughter.
