You are always automatically a citizen of the country you were born in, all you need is the proof of your birth certificate. If your parent is a citizen of Another Country, you can also gain citizenship for that country, normally by following the proper application procedures which are different for each country.

For Guatemala, the parents must register the child with a Guatemalan Embassy or with the Registro Civil in Guatemala before the child reaches the age of 18. You need photocopies of your birth certificate, your Dad's cedula, your Mom's passport, and their marriage certificate (if they are married). You will also need both of their signatures. I believe the process takes about 3 months.

What rights does a father have of a child if the child is born to an American father but the mother is from brazil?

That depends on where the child was born. If in the USA, the father, if legally deemed, has as many rights as the state's laws provide in the child's legal state of residence. Any child born on USA soil is, by virtue of their birth, conferred the status of a citizen of the USA and as such, is subject to all federal laws and state laws where they reside. If the child was born in Brazil and USA citizenship has need been otherwise awarded, Brazilian law would apply as to the rights of the father.
