The Pennsylvania Petition for Voluntary Relinquishment of all Parental Rights and Duties to Adult is a legal document used to terminate a parent's legal relationship with their adult child. This document is used to legally and permanently terminate all parental rights and responsibilities of the parent to the adult child. This document is used in situations where the parent is unable or unwilling to fulfill their parental duties and/or responsibilities to the adult child. The Pennsylvania Petition for Voluntary Relinquishment of all Parental Rights and Duties to Adult has two types: the voluntary relinquishment and the involuntary relinquishment. The voluntary relinquishment is when the parent willingly and voluntarily terminates their parental rights and duties to the adult child. The involuntary relinquishment is when the parent is compelled to terminate their parental rights and duties to the adult child due to circumstances beyond their control. In order to file a Pennsylvania Petition for Voluntary Relinquishment of all Parental Rights and Duties to Adult, the parent must meet certain criteria, including proving that the termination of parental rights is in the best interest of the adult child, that the parent is relinquishing all parental rights and duties to the adult child, and that the relinquishment is in the best interest of the adult child. Additionally, the parent must provide a certified copy of the relinquishment to the adult child and any other necessary parties, such as the court or agency overseeing the matter. Once the Petition for Voluntary Relinquishment of all Parental Rights and Duties to Adult is filed and approved, the parent's legal rights and responsibilities to the adult child are permanently terminated. The parent will no longer be responsible for providing financial support, making decisions on behalf of the adult child, or having contact with the adult child.
