custody can be taken, you'll know it but whether or not you have any say in the matter is different I beg to differ but, yes it can happen without you knowing. It happened to me and I lived a half a block away from EX. He went to court. Lied about not know my whereabouts (So I never got served) and he was granted custody of the child and the child lived with me! A couple of years later he decides he is going to move out of state. I tell him he cannot do that. He tells me yes I can and pulls out custody papers. There was nothing I could do. I went immediately to the magistrates office and by the time I got back he was gone!. Please protect yourself from this. Get some kind of custody orders. DO NOT trust that your ex will do the right thing. Even if you both agree to be civil adults about the whole thing.
If the custody was taken away there must've been a good reason for it but you can seek visitation rights or appeal but it all depends on why the court took the custody away. Speak to a lawyer.
Even though the mother is underage she still has custody of her child as long as she does not do something to get custody taken away from her
YES!
A motion for custody of a child in need of care, but the state will oppose it.
Depends on whether there's a father in the house.
You, because you are the mother of the child. Unless you got the baby taken away form you and someone else has custody of him/her.
If the new parents agree to it or if their parental rights are taken away due to neglect etc you can file for custody as a grandparent if that is legal in your state.
If you are divorced and the court awarded him "custody" he can.
Your parent no longer has full custody, it was taken away, so you would be a runaway, and they would be harboring a runaway.
Since you haven't included any details the following is general information. The parent needs to rectify the circumstances that resulted in their losing custody in the first place if custody was taken away by a court. If the parent voluntarily consented to the change in custody they can petition the same court to end that guardianship and restore custody in the parent.Since you haven't included any details the following is general information.

You can't. Your mom has to sign away their rights or have them taken away before you can get adopted.
Why take it away? That is just as damaging. Request supervised visitation.
