Why should the baby be in newborn care if his/her mother is willing to care for her? I have some deep questions about how ethical it is for a social worker to try and talk a client into anything. If he is bluffing she can still place the baby. If adoption is the right decision it will be the right decision even after the mom cares for her for a month.
I think it is also important to think about the biases against fathers in these situations. If a father does not agree with placement he is instantly doing it out of spite. Could it be he actually loves his baby? Why is that such a stretch? Have you met him yet? I would just say to hold off on judging his actions and intentions until you meet him.
