Can you have a paternity test done on an unborn baby?
If done with the limitations set by the court, yes. In Kansas, in order to challenge an adoption, the father must have begun paying child support four months prior to the birth.

If the grandparents want to adopt the child that they already have custody of do both parents have to sign or can just one parent sign off their rights in adoption?
Both need to testify in, or provide documentation to, the court that they approve this adoption. Everything needs to be clearly documented, and clearly defined boundaries set to avoid future problems. Or, interference.
Parents looking for children to adopt?
Any parent looking to adopt should check with their city/state about kids up for adoption. Contact a local adoption agency to find out who is up for adoption. Make sure you know if you want to have an open or closed adoption (open is the birth parents can contact the child closed is they can not) and be prepared for adoption to be set up and then fall though (the birth mother/father stop the adoption process).
In the state of Massachusetts if a biological father is unaware of a child and the child is adopted by his stepfather is the bio dad responsible for any back child support?
Well if the Bio father is unaware of the baby then I don't believe he has to pay child support because the mom decided that the father didn't need to know about the child and if the child is adopted (like me) either by a step dad or by a different set of parent AND the father know about the child Then the father would need to pay back child support.
How to Prepare for Child Adoption?
Child adoption can be a difficult process that can take several years to complete. Before submitting an adoption application to your local government agency, you would be wise to get your house in order by preparing certain aspects of your life for in-depth review. Three basic guidelines will help you to prepare for child adoption. First, make sure that your finances are sufficient to raise a child and that all of your financial dealings are above board. Second, ensure that your employment is secure and that your employers are eager to give you rave performance reviews. Third, make sure that your community, friends and family are all in support of your child adoption decision and that they are willing to walk with you through the adoption process and beyond.Financial SecurityChild adoption agencies will want to see that you can adequately provide for your prospective adoptive child in the area of finances. Make sure that you have a stable income, money set aside for emergencies, a hefty nest-egg savings account and equity in the form of appreciating property. While you do not have to be a millionaire to adopt a child, adoption agencies do want you to be fiscally responsible and able to provide for your adopted child over the duration of their life.Job SecurityIf you bounce from job to job with a great deal of irregularity, you should settle into a position and stick to it for more than a year before expecting your child adoption application to be seriously considered. Children that are up for adoption have typically experienced some form of trauma, whether it be a matter of abandonment or worse, physical abuse. Child adoption agencies are looking for stable people with stable live and stable jobs to take in children who have had an unstable start in the world.Community SupportChild adoption agencies will want you to demonstrate a certain ’connectivity’ to community, whether it be close family or church members, or volunteer agencies. The old proverb that it takes a village to raise a child is certainly true when it comes to child adoption and you would be wise to become tight with your local ’village’ before applying with child adoption agencies.
Adoption?
Adoption is mandated by state law and refers to the creation of a parent-child bond between two people who are not related by blood. Adoption laws vary by state and regulate the rights, duties, privileges and responsibilities of both parties to the adoption.
When is a good time to consider a second adoption?
There is no set time to start thinking about adopting another child. It all depends on the preparedness and needs of the child, and the adoptive family. Talk to your adoptions counselor or case manager and see what they suggest.
What do you call the child you gave up for adoption?
Your son or daughter. Just because the child gets a new set of parents, doesn't mean that the birth parents cease to exist. Adopted children have two sets of parents and both parents will call that child theirs.
Can the birth mom get visitation set post adoption?
No she can not. An open adoption has to be decided before the adoption is final. And even then it's usually pictures etc and not visitation.
If you are paying child support do you have to pay for your child's school?
Your legal obligations are set forth in the child support order. You need to review it.
