I've asked my husband to talk with the BF and see if he's willing to sign over his rights. I would do it, but I just can't talk to him without getting angry. So, all of my discussions with him are via email. I think the open adoption option is good. That way if my daughter wants to see him or vice versa it would work out for the better. I know from conversations with her that she wants to get to know him, but she doesn't want to live with him or visit him without me or her step-dad being there. She's that uncomfortable with him. The crime the BF committed was a sexual offense and he is currently a registered sex offender. At least in California. Not sure about the state he's currently living.
So if the BF is willing to sign over his rights, what form is used or is a notarized statement to the fact enough? I have spoken with a couple of attorney's and they said they would go the route of getting him to give up his rights before they take it to court to terminate. So here's hoping he see's the best way and isn't too selfish.
I'm glad to know that I'm not the only person out with there with this type of case. Thanks for the info and support. I will keep this post updated.
