In Pennsylvania, a parent who abandons a child can be subject to criminal charges, including felony charges of endangering the welfare of a child. Depending on the circumstances of the case, the parent may be sentenced to prison and/or be required to pay restitution to the child.
In Pennsylvania, the paternity of a minor child can be established either voluntarily or involuntarily. If parents are unmarried and agree that the father is the biological father of the child, they must sign a Voluntary Acknowledgement of Paternity, or VAP.
There are two ways of terminating parental rights? voluntary and involuntary. No matter the circumstances, it is highly advisable to have legal counsel during the termination proceedings, particularly if the biological parents are contesting the adoption.
Biological parents can also petition the court to voluntarily relinquish their parental rights either to an adoption agency or the adult(s) intending to adopt the child. The biological parents must attend a voluntary relinquishment hearing, which will generally be held 35-40 days after the consent form has been filed.
The only way you can voluntarily terminate your parental rights is if child is to be adopted. Generally this adoption is by the new spouse of one of the child's parents. The courts will not make a child an orphan. An orphan is a child without both parents.
If you do not have a custody Order of Court, the default in Pennsylvania is shared legal custody. Physical custody is the right to have the child in your care. Pennsylvania recognizes five types of physical custody. Primary physical custody gives one party the right to care for the child the majority of the time.
In Pennsylvania, abandonment is defined as the willful desertion or neglect of a minor child by a parent or guardian, or the willful failure of a parent or guardian to provide necessary care, support, or protection for a minor child.
