No, you don't have that power. The law provides both parents with equal parental rights until a court order is entered to change that balance. You would need to provide compelling evidence to the court that the father is an unfit parent and there is another responsible adult willing to take over parental responsibility by a legal adoption. You should consult with an attorney who specializes in custody issues.

Since relinquishing the rights are near to impossible for a father, than yes.
Yes, as long as the father has not established his paternity legally. Once he has established his paternity in court he has parental rights and he must consent to any guardianship or the court will schedule a hearing whereby he can explain his objections.Yes, as long as the father has not established his paternity legally.

No, 3 months is not long enough for them to remove parental rights.
Termination of parental rights, TPR, is a long and very difficult, complex process. You need to be in touch with the child welfare agency in your area, and with an attorney. And by the way, neither parent terminates the rights of the other. It is the authority of the state that terminates parental rights.
There is no specific time after which parental rights are terminated in Louisiana. Often judges make the determination if the situation demands it.

That depends on whether or not the father has been a part of the child(ren)'s lives in the past year. If yes, then as long as the father is meeting all of the child support orders, then the visitation ordered by the courts are required to stay in effect. If there are no visitation or child support orders, the father must go to court to get those. If the father is on the birth certificate and there are no orders, the father has just as much right to the children as the mother. Hope this helps.

Not as long as both parents have parental rights. If one parent gives up his parental rights which is required when putting a child in foster care, the other parent is the first one in line to take the child since she still have her parental rights. This assuming both are fit to parent. If the parents are not married and the father has not proved paternity in court and got his parental rights he should do so asap and then he has rights to the child. The social workers usually ask relatives first if they are interested in taking the child. There is a shortage fo foster families and staying with family is considered best for the child.
It depends on which state you are in and under what circumstances you are signing your parental over for. In some states, you cannot sign over your parental rights unless the other parent is remarried and the step-parent is willing to adopt the child.
