Does a child have rights to a parent that gave up rights to said child?
What kind of rights do you mean? Sometimes parental rights are severed but the child may fare poorly in the adoption process and still long for contact with the natural parent. Lot's of these kids do reunite with parents whose rights have been severed. A child has a right to seek information and contact with the natural parent if they so desire. Some states have procedures. Arizona does.
AnswerYou cannot force someone to love you, or even to see you. If you were given up for adoption by a parent, you can seek out that person and make contact with them, but if that parent is unwilling to meet with you or pursue a relationship with you, you cannot legally force them to.The point is YES the child has rights. She has the right at the legal age of the state she is in, usually 16-18, make contact with her birth parent. Depending on the trail the birth parent has left to follow (address, phone number, name changes etc) it may require a lot of work to track the parent down. A parent who does not want to be found will make an effort to conceal their whereabouts, get an unlisted number or asked for the record to be sealed.
