You do not need their ok.

You do need the dad's ok, If the kid has a dad.

How did you "give" your parents guardianship?

How old is the baby

Why dont you let your parents adopt it?

You do need the dad's ok, If the kid has a dad. I was/am married to a man who is not the father. He is willing to sign. The father wants nothing to do with baby since we do not talk I am not sure what he wants

How did you "give" your parents guardianship? My parents took me to court to get guardianship I signed the consent there lawyer gave me to sign. My baby was in foster care at the time. Case is now closed and no longer involved

How old is the baby 8 weeks old

Why dont you let your parents adopt it?
My parents are in there 60's and I do not like the area my parents live in. My parents are refusing to let me see my son. I want my baby raised by a younger couple close to where I live so I can have an open adoption

I'm sorry you don't want your baby, but if you think it is right, you have that right.

BP, check OP's other thread - this one is complicated...

I think my link to others' threads is broken, I can only get their profile from the "recent post page" and only if she were the last to post on the topic.

Sorry OP. Post to your last thread, or start your new one acknowledging your first. Its only good manners

Both posts are separate questions if the change of Guardianship does not go threw I want to place him for adoption.
 
There's the problem - if the court doesn't see fit to change guardianship, what makes you think they'll approve an adoption?

Guardianship is temporary where Adoption is permanent I figured the court would want permanency for the baby thats why they would grant the adoption

I agree, Good luck to you.

(but dont say, if they wont change gaurdians, I dont want the baby at all... then the court might just give the baby to your parents, and thats it. Pick one.)

As the sister of an adopted brother, and aunt to adopted nephews (adopted by that same brother) this statement offends me Greatly! It is incredibly inappropriate, offensive, and quite frankly, disgusting.

HOW DARE YOU Judge someone like that!! Especially someone in an obviously difficult situation who has come here asking for help.

OP - I know it's an incredibly difficult choice you are making. And God bless you for wanting to do what you believe is best for your baby.

Thank you!

Adoption is a legitimate way to build a family and birth parents who want their child to have a stable adoptive home with mature, responsible parents whould not be judged or berated for wishing to make an adoption plan.

Nor should it be stated or implied that the birthparents "didn't want their child" or "gave away" their child.

Why are adoiptive parents any less legitimate than bioparents?

Sorry to have offended all the adoptive parents, and past adopted children.

There is a chance (large chance) that being adopted is the best things that could happen to some children.

My bad.
