🥳idk if I’m too happy too quick

Wer u from by any chance

GA

it doesn’t matter if he wants to or not he has no legal rights unless he actually legitimatizes which is his choice and if he does it won’t take anyways because his case isn’t strong enough pretty much

Yall can't share rights?

no I want his toxic ass out of both me and my baby’s life and before I found all this information out he constantly was using the “fact” that he has rights to the baby as a weapon against me to take the baby from me and impose his will as far as having unsupervised visits without actually just building up that kind of trust with me. I’m extremely exhausted with having to give him EVERYTHING he wants while I don’t get to get ANYTHING I want. Plus giving him rights would keep me trapped in one place and I most definitely do want to move out of the state that I’m in.

I get he’s toxic for you, but why would you keep him out of your daughter’s life if he wants to see her? Genuinely curiously. Still her dad.

for it to even go in his favor he’d have to clear 5 charges, clear up $30,000 of unpaid child support (which he’s been trying to evade for years now), prove that he actually spends time with his child (and in his case children because he has kids already that he’s not seeing or doing anything for), and also prove that he takes care of the baby financially in any way shape or form (which he doesn’t) in the 4 months we’ve spent apart he’s bought her 3 packs of diapers that’s it and nothing else, he doesn’t pay for shelter, doesn’t pay insurance for her, doesn’t pay for formula or food if any sort, no utilities…nothing but those 3 packs of diapers that I practically had to beg him for and I have proof of that too. Even if it doesn’t go in my favor it for sure isn’t gonna go in his and at this point I just want to stop dealing with him as a whole and this is the only way that I’ve found that I could possibly do that.

cause his actions speak louder than his wants. We’ve been separated for 4 months and I’ve allowed FULL ACCESS for him to come see the baby…he’s seen her 4 times tops since. I personally don’t want that type of inconsistency in my baby’s life just allowing him to pop in and out. Those few times he saw her was only because I reminded him that it’s been a month since he’d seen her. He says he wants to see her but doesn’t just come on his own at all and he knows he doesn’t need my permission to come I just told him let me know when you’re coming whenever you come so we can be ready.

Have you spoken with an attorney? I don’t know GA law but if he signed the birth certificate a lot of states accept that as legitimacy. I’ve seen where it takes years to get off a birth certificate because it turns out the child wasn’t theirs.

he doesn’t want to see her, he just wants to “own” the baby in the eye of the law. It’s a control thing and a financial thing (cause he’s then be able to claim the child as a dependent legally if he gets rights) and I’m finally finding my way to regain some type of control over the situation so that me and the baby don’t end out stuck in the same situation we just attempted to leave from. Being used and unloved properly

Georgia is a state that deems a wedlock baby as illegitimate so unless he gets the baby legitimized it doesn’t matter if he signed or not. Him so he big just declares paternity pretty much just saying he’s the biological father but the whole wedlock situation makes him not the legal father.

him signing it*

Gotcha … best of luck to you and your daughter I hope you find safety happiness and peace

By wt uve said n wt I know about family law ur right about he won't av legal rights to baby till he gets it legitimised but at same time for example if u wanted to claim child support uve have get paternity test done which that alone with give him a stronger case to apply to get his rights


Has u ever shown instrest that he would

not at all he has no interest in paying child support for any reason and I don’t care to put him on it cause I don’t need it really

I wouldn't get too happy. Technically, legitimization can be a simple AOP which is easy to do. He's on the birth certificate so you can kiss leaving the country goodbye without him signing off on it. GA may require legitimization, but moving to another state, they may view the birth certificate as enough. You can't get CS without him gaining legal rights either. You need to talk to a family law lawyer

I understand you don't like him, but you might want to consider how y'all child will view you in the future when they find out that you did and will do everything in your power to keep him away from her. Children generally grow up and seek out their biological parents.

I’ve read your post and the comments. I don’t live In ga but The only way I know a man to not have legal right to the baby out of wedlock is if you are married to someone else. Which you said he’s on the birth certificate and signed everything so that’s not the case otherwise he wouldn’t be on the birth certificate however you can get sole custody and if he’s not willing to fight it or show proof he’s capable of having any type of custody then he will loose as well as his track record, also I know you said you don’t need child support but someone said you need a dna for child support which is inaccurate unless he’s denying the child then they’ll proceed without a dna. Also what a lot of women fail to realize is that you can up and leave and move wherever you want unless you guys are in court already then they’ll be against it and you can be in contempt. He cannot claim the child as a dependent unless he lives with them full time and takes care of them. Now if he had proof that (cont.)

He cares for her while she lives with you then it may be possible but you usually have to live with the child for more than half the year unless again you have proof that you financially support that child (I do taxes so I know). You won’t be able to leave the country unless you get sole custody due to him being on the birth certificate you can go to any state yes but not out the country

you can’t get child support without legitimization. Also if he petitions the court with his lawyer about this he won’t need your permission. In GA the state will do a paternity test for his legitimization. Also y’all will have to do a parenting plan and custody agreement regardless if he wants to have anything to do with the baby . Y’all will also probably have to do counseling to be able to co-parent . The judge never favors cutting access to the child just because.. would have to be an emergency custody hearing if that’s the case and a substantial amount of evidence as to what supports this extreme means . GA does 50/50 custody unless the opposing party signs over their rights.

He signed the birth certificate. So she can get child support if she wanted which she stated she doesn’t. The only time they do dna testing is if he starts to say it’s not his or he isn’t sure or if he wasn’t on the birth certificate at all and even then she can get child support as long as she’s not married to someone else then legally that would be her husbands child

I use to practice custody law in GA . You still have to get legitimacy. The birth certificate is a good start for a claim though

oh I wasn’t saying for custody I was saying the signature on birth certificate is good enough for child support

I get what you meant , custody law handles these situations. The judge won’t grant child support without legitimacy. Anyone can sign the birth certificate if you allow them . Doesn’t prove anything. DNA is inrefutable. Especially if both parties aren’t on speaking terms to consent. It’s about the child’s best interests and the parent’s responsibility. I’ve had many mothers have their current partners sign the birth certificate but receive child support from another . It sounds crazy but it happens.. You can’t submit the case to the judge without nor will DCSS enforce support without it .
