maybe when the child is born take her to court for visitation It depends on just how old he is. 15..16..17? In some states you don't have to be 18 to be considered an "adult" and do what you want to do. I know in Texas the legal age is 17. So he would be able to see his daughter. He should be allowed to see her anyway unless the mother is much older than that may cause a problem with the parents.
Only if the mother of the child is willing to allow visitation. The law presumes that an unmarried mother regardless of her age has sole custody of the child and the legal right to make all decisions concerning the child unless a court rules otherwise.
Google "dad's rights" "father's rights" etc. There are lots of organization with info to help you on this. You will have to legally petition for parental rights, and YOU MUST petition to be on the birth certificate within 24 HOURS of the birth. Now, if you are 21 and the mother-to-be- is 14 then leave her alone and let her parents handle it. If you are a drug dealer or violent criminal, likewise leave her alone and clean up your life. If you are a nice guy and your girlfriend is 18 then go for it - dad's have rights, but you have to go get them sometimes or the court assumes you don't want them.
Yes, but only if there is no order, temporary or otherwise, that states that the father should have reasonable access to the child. While custody proceedings are pending, there is typically a document issued that requires some sort of visitation with the parent that the child does not live with. If there is such a document, you don't want to violate it because it will hurt your chances for custody. However, if there is no document that gives the father either visitation rights or states that you must give the father reasonable access to the child, then you can do whatever you want until a court order is issued.
In the US, they don't have any automatic rights, but they can certainly go to court and attempt to obtain rights. Rather they will be successful, depends on all the factors of the situation.
Yes, they can. Once the baby is born he can seek visitation rights to the child in court, but he only has rights to see the child, not the mother.

A minor cannot leave the home of the custodial parent without that parent's permission. The noncustodial parent can petition the court for custody rights pertaining to the minor child. Depending on the child's age the court will take into consideration the opinion/feelings of the child before rendering a decision.
If you live in the US… It depends on what rights you're talking about. Minor parents have parental rights over their own children (for example, you get to decide rather or not you want to voluntarily give the child up for adoption). However, the minor parent is still subject to the control and authority of their own parents, because having a child does not emancipate a minor.
No a custodial parent can not kick a child out of school if the child is still a minor. If the child is 18 years old, the parent may kick them out.
At 16 it is the childs' choice. The errant father certainly has no legal rights to the child. Laws pertaining to child custody are set by the state in which the minor and his/her custodial parent or legal guardian have established residency. Although a father has not been involved the child's life it does not automatically exclude him from filing a custody petition. Parental rights can only be terminated in two ways, voluntarily or by order of a court of jurisdiction. As long as the child is deemed a minor pursuant to the laws of the state of residency, age is not a factor. In most cases the judge presiding over a custody hearing would take into account the wishes of a sixteen years old.
No, they cannot legally take the child away. Though a minor, the parent does have rights regarding the child.
He can try, but the minor mother have equal rights to the child. They will not remove the child from her based on the fact that she is a minor as long as she is a fit parent.
If you child is a minor and you are a custodial parent, you should have complete access. If your child is an adult, none.
It is unclear what you are asking about. What rights? If the child is below the age of emancipation they are a minor and the parents ber the responsibility for the chiold. (????)
The rights of a minor child in a deceased parent's estate depend on state laws and the parent's will. Typically, minor children are entitled to inherit from their deceased parent's estate, either through intestate succession laws or as specified in the parent's will. A guardian or trustee is often appointed to manage the inheritance on behalf of the minor child until they reach the age of majority. Consulting with a legal professional would help determine the specific rights of the minor child in this situation.

Yes, she is the guardian of the child.
No, the minor parent is.
You would have to call the court house for legal papers on terminating parental rights.
Having a child does not emancipate the parent. It does give them certain rights in regard to taking care of the child.
Why would a minor child have a paycheck?
The answer depends on the laws in your jurisdiction. Most intestacy laws treat a minor child differently recognizing the need for a parent to provide for minor children. In most jurisdictions in the US a parent cannot disinherit a minor child. An adult child can be disinherited in many jurisdictions as long as the will meets the requirements of state laws. The law in the UK is different.
