Can a child of two Catholics one being divorced be baptized?
According to the Catechism of the Catholic Church, the base rule for who can be baptized is "Every person not yet baptized and only such a person is able to be baptized." http://www.scborromeo.org/ccc/p2s2c1a1.htm#1246 Given that children with one non-Catholic parent are regularly baptized, I would imagine it is possible, but if the divorced parent re-married, without annulment, the other parent of the child then there would be grave concerns about the likelihood of the child being raised in the Faith. Most priests would not agree to such a baptism. If the parents were divorced after the child was conceived, or if the divorced parent also has an annulment, then I can't think of any reason that the child could not be baptized.

Why does a parent in Ohio juvenile court who was found unfit still have visitation rights?
Often, just because a person is deemed unfit to parent, it doesn't mean they have no right to visit the child. The courts usually won't forbid a parent to have visitation rights, unless the parent has been proven to be physically harmful to the child. However, there are times when, if the court finds the parent's intentions towards the child 'suspect', but with no proof, they may allow only supervised visitation with the child. This means the parent can visit the child, but only with an approved adult present, such as another adult relative, or even a social worker.

Can a child be baptized in the Catholic Church if the parents are gay or lesbian?
Catholic Answer This is a complicated question that can only be answered by the parish priest in charge of the parish in which the child resides. To be baptized there MUST be a well-founded hope that the child will be raised as a Christian. If the the mother or father raising the child is a practicing Catholic then there should be no problem. However, if the child is living with a parent who is engaging in a sinful lifestyle and obviously disregarding Church teachings then I think the possibility of a well-founded hope would be pretty slim.
