In general, parental rights are terminated either preparatory to an adoption, or after a trial in which it is determined that the parent is unfit. In any case, termination of parental rights does not, in itself, terminate child support.
That depends on who he wants to sign over his rights to and the particular circumstances. If he wants to sign over his parental rights to his mother, for example, both parents would have to agree and the grandmother would become the legal guardian once the petition for guardianship was approved by the family court. A court would need to approve any "signing over" of parental rights.
Yes, both parents have to sign since both parents have to terminate their parental rights for the adoption to be possible.
yes, if you're married you cannot singly adopt.
Yes unless there are extenuating circumstances. In some states - the court may agree to the emancipation and in others there is no legal emancipation.

No. It is ultimately the court's decision. However termination of parental rights does not terminate the obligation to pay child support, at least if and when the child is legally adopted.
If the parents and the court agree to it. Not likely since it is across state lines.
She wants to please her father.
Anywhere. If your parents agree, there are no legal restrictions. The only problems occur when an underage person wants to marry without consent.
I think that the father does to a certain extent,nothing legal but at his house he makes all of the rules. because i know someone with this same issue, i think that if the child wants to see his or her father they should be allowed to when ever they want. And i think that when the child is with their father the father should make the rules for that house and even though he might not have any rights i say that it's his house so it should be his rules no matter if he has rights or not. And that if the child wants to do something, like go to town and hang out with some friends then they should be able to, the legal parents should not have to be contacted..the only reason why the legal parents should be contacted is if the child is asking for something that they normally don't ever get to do not even while with the legal parents. The father would still not have any legal rights but when the child goes to visit him it would be like going to a friends house and the legal parents say that whatever you do is up to the friends parents...its no different except that the legal parents might get scarred that the child might want to move out of their house and move back in with their dad.
The father needs to consult with an attorney who can review the situation and determine what the options are.
His mother wants him to refresh his faith, get married, and have kids. His father father wants him to support himself.
Yes, if your guardian/parent agree to it and the parent wants to be contacted.
No. If the mother is unmarried then she has legal custody of her child automatically. If the father wants parental rights he must establish his paternity in court.No. If the mother is unmarried then she has legal custody of her child automatically.

Only if the parents agree to it or the grandmother can prove to the court that the parents are unfit (which takes a lot).

If you live in the US, your rights in this regard can be summed up in one word--none. Being pregnant and/or having a child, does not give a minor any adult rights. You are merely a pregnant minor and you are still subject to the control and authority of your parents.
