Can this be done w/ref 2 voluntarily terminating one's parental rights?presented pro se before crt by attorney,signed & ordered by judge,will this be binding if terminating BP chngs mind 4 yrs later & wants relationship w/child? thnx
are quite reluctant to terminate a parent's rights, even if the one wanting the rights terminated is in agreement. The reason for this is that if the child doesn't have two parents to provide support, part of that becomes the responsibility of the state.
IF the parental rights are terminated, there is no hooking up and requesting a relationship some four years later, unless the other parent just decides to buck the termination order. (And that would not be a good idea where the child is concerned; no one should be allowed to see and parent a child when they find the time...it's a full time job).
And one more question...how can you present pro se with an atty?
