I believe that the mother should get custody and she gives the father a schedule to be on.

Can a father get custody of a newborn child?
This one will have to go through a court of law and your parents (if they want custody of this baby) will have to fight your boyfriend for these rights. If the court sees that your boyfriend is too young, not dependable to raise this child then yes, your parents could very well end up with the custody of your baby. It's time you sat down and talked to your parents to be sure they want this great responsibility. If this young man is a nice guy then I would let him at least have some time with his child. Depending upon circumstances the court could award temporary custody to the birth mother's parents. However, the biological father and his parents would also be granted the opportunity to petition for custodial rights. It is generally accepted that an unmarried mother has automatic and full custodial rights of the child until those rights are challenged. Regardless of who retained custody, the biological father would be granted visitation rights if he so wished. The mother or the mother's parents would not have the option to withold such privileges.
What does it mean if a father signs his rights off on his child?
If it's court ordered, he has no right of access, or to petition for access. If this addresses single fathers, they have no rights of access, however they have a right to petition the courts for access. Generally, if the parents are unmarried the mother has sole custody and control in most states until the father can establish his paternity. Remember, a child's mother can always be identified by medical records. Since the father didn't give birth and he was not legally married at the time of the birth he must seek other means of establishing his paternity and that is done through paternity test. A paternity test can be arranged through the court and once established the father can request visitations, custody and set up child support for the child.
If you have physical custody of a child in Virginia but the child has been living in Florida for 3 years with his father does the Virginia order still stand if the child wants to come back?
No, as it's been longer than six months
Does the mother have legal custody of the child?
Correct. Once a minor has a child, she is emancipated, meaning she is now considered an adult and independent of her parents. No, a mother who is a minor is presumed by law to have the same rights to her child as she would if she were an adult. Parents cannot force her to sign over custodial rights, have an abortion or place a child for adoption. If the she feels she is in need of assistance she can contact the state's department of family and children's services or Birthright 1-800-556-4900, http://www.birthright.org I don't think so
Can a father give his child to the state without the mothers permission?
NO. The court sees this as an opportunity for the mother to hide the child from the child's father. Any decisions of this matter MUST be decided by the courts with the father's knowledge, unless child is in danger of death from father. Sorry. That would depend upon the original custody order, if there is none in place, the parent who has physical custody of the minor child may place them in the temporary custody of a family member or qualified adult. The legal definition of temporary custody is three months or less, any longer term must be determined by the court in accordance with the laws of the state of residency. If the parents have joint custody either in a voluntary agreement or one ordered by the court, then both parents must agree to the temporary arrangement in writing.

She will not have any custody to give since she no longer have parental rights. The father have to go to court to petition for custody as soon as he has established paternity through a DNA test.

What happens now is the father can obtain custody because he does have rights or the person who has custody and have legal guardianship can file for assistance in which child support can be included or filed.
