I live in one state, my daughter's father lives in another. We were never married and haven't spoken since May of last year. She was born in December (in our current state, not where she was conceived). I want sole parental rights & responsibilities. He's never put forth the effort to contact me or her. How can I ensure I get custody? I have no problem if he wants to come here to visit her, but he has not earned the right for any say regarding medical care or education. Papers have already been filed. It's a waiting game at this point... Any advice?
