Question about adoptee's amended birth certificates?
Its been years since I really inspected my amended birth certificate. I was looking at it last week and came across a few interesting items. That being said, for the life of me, I will never understand how the government gets away with falsifying an "official" document. It has my adopted name, date of birth, my ap's names & their dob's. It even has the date my "mother" had a serological test for syphilis- the day I was born. I asked my adoptive Mom if she had to have a test like this when she applied for adoption. Nope...and she was quite insulted when I asked. My abc has 2 different "stamps" on it. One says "received and filed on December 20, 1965". That is IMPOSSIBLE, as my ap's did not even get me until the first week in May. Of 1966. In the corner, it has the date of December 2, 1966 in a circle/stamp. That is most likely when my adoption was final, or when the court filed the final adoption decree. My ap's swear they do not remember when my adoption was final, although they said they had to live in fear for 6 months after they got me and my a bro.....because "THAT WOMAN" could have shown up on their doorstep and taken their baby, lol. But- that date would have been 6 months after they got me. The ONLY things that are true on my abc was my weight, my sex, the hospital, and the doctor who delivered me. He was an in-house doctor who subcontracted with Catholic Scarities. It is the 1966 date that has always confused people who have needed to see it. (getting my driver's license, social security card after I was married, and when I needed to have it to travel to Mexico) Other than the obvious, does your abc have any other funkiness going on? Have any of the first Moms here had the chance to see their child's amended birth certificates? Ap's? What oddities are listed on your child's abc? Even as a child I laughed at the absurdity listed on my abc.....but the test for syphillis truly made me go, "Hmmmmm."
Can a birth mother put another mothers name on the birth certificate?
My friend is going to have a child for me and I was wondering if she could just put me on the birth certificate when the baby is born as the mother? This is the first time we are attempting something like this and I don't know how it is going to go down or what we have to do. Some one please help...
When a person is adopted, does the birthcertificate change?
his original birth certificate will be sealed and he'll be issued a new one that says you're his mother of birth. yeah, that REALLY deserved a thumbs down...thanks noodles
Do most birth parents name the child they give up for adoption or do the adoptive parents do that?
We met our son’s birth mom about 2 months before he was born. She had a girl name picked out that she felt very strongly about and for a boy she asked that her last name be his middle name. While we were wiling to work with her to name the baby, we really did not like the girl name she had chosen and were relieved when an ultrasound soon revealed that the baby was male. It seemed like a good sign that her last name is the same as my husband’s middle name.We shared boy names we liked and deleted names she really did not like. She shared names she liked, and we let her know which we liked and didn’t like. Honestly, we didn’t care for many of the names she picked, but I wish we had because we did want to come to an agreement. We finally all agreed on the first name, but she wanted to spell it uniquely, which we really didn’t want. In the end on the birth certificate, she did list his name with the correctly spelled first name, his middle name and our last name. Not only does that make it easier on paperwork, but we can honestly say that we all chose his name together.
Is it illegal to put someone else's name on a birth certificate if they are not the birth parent?
Let's just say a friend is pregnant, but doesn't want to keep the baby, doesn't want to put it up for adoption, but also doesn't want to get an abortion. She has a friend she trusts with her life that can't have kids and wants kids, but can't afford to adopt, and isn't quite old enough to adopt. Would it be illegal for the birth mother to put her friends name on the birth certificate when the baby is born as the mom, and just let her friend take the baby home and raise it as her own?
Can a single mother give her child up for adoption without the father's consent?
If she gives birth in another state, does not put the father's name on the birth certificate, and denies knowing who the father is, she will probably succeed in placing her child for adoption without the father's consent.When the birth father is known, it is still possible to place without consent, but the details will vary by state.My son’s birth mother was angry at the birth father, because he had not been in contact with her during her pregnancy. The birth father then refused to sign the papers to terminate his rights. In most states, the birth parents cannot terminate their rights until after the birth. In Rhode Island, the birth parent rights can be terminated after six months for lack of support.So his birth mother didn't terminate her own rights, and she fought the birth father in court for her right to make her own plans for her baby because he didn't support her during the pregnancy or in the six months after the birth. The judge was very clear that the birth father had rights, and she could not make plans without considering his rights. The judge subpoenaed the birth father to appear in court to present his side. The decision went to the birth mother, who placed her son with us.
