She can but it must be approved by a court and the father must also consent. The adoption or guardianship must be accomplished by a court order. The parties must seek the advice of an attorney who specializes in custody and adoption.

What will happen if the mother doesn't want the father to have paternal rights?

In the UK, if you are married when your children are born, you both automatically have parental rights. If you are not married, then you have to apply for parental responsibility rights, if the mother does not want to share that with you. This can be done by court order. After 2003, if not married but father is written on the birth certificate, that is enough to have parental responsibility and all that that entails. Not sure how it is for you guys in the USA!
