You mean a contract to sell a property in which the parent has a life estate? No.

If the children want to sell their future interest in the property, it is separate from the rights of the parent with a life estate. Similarly, the children do not need to be asked if the the parent wants to sell (or mortgage) his or her life estate to someone else.

On the other hand, if the buyers want clear title, with no life estate, then you have a different problem: terminating the life estate, by merging it with the future estate, and what's in it for you?

Can I have legal rights to a baby without going to court?

If you are the natural parent you have legal rights. Those rights are presumed and someone will have to go to court to take those rights away. if you no longer have a relationship with the other parent, or have a very bad relationship with the other parent, and they are the primary caretaker, then the other parent can go to court, perhaps gain sole custody of the child, and your rights will be greatly limited.If you are not the natural parent, it is very difficult to gain legal guardianship over the child without the parent's consent, unless the parent is shown to be incompetent. If the parent is found incompetent, there is no guarantee the court would not find the state foster care system a better option for the child. In any event, you would have to go to court to have any guardianship/adopted parental rights recognized.
