    Unhappy Can I Remove the Father from the Birth Certificate

    I live in Louisiana. My son is 3 months old & his father is on the birth certificate however he also hAs a girlfriend who is on drugs & possibly him as well.??? I do not want him to have any rights to my son as I dont want my son in that environment at any time. I will be more than willing to go without child support to ensure my sons safety. Is there anyway to remove his name from the birth certificate? or any type of way to ensure that he will not be able to get visitation? I am very worried and need to know what steps to take if any to keep my son safe!. PLEASE HELP????

    If you didn't want your child around this man, then the solution was to not have the child. Now that you decided that this man who you CHOSE to be the father of this child has signed the acknowledgment of paternity, and his name is on the birth certificate, he stays there. If he sues you for visitation (and he absolutely should), he will get it. Your suspicions mean nothing without proof - and he's allowed to have a girlfriend. Please read my signature and commit it to memory. You are part and parcel of the reason I created it.

    In a word?

    No.

    You chose him as Dad - unless you can prove that the child will be endangered when in Dad's custody, you've got no chance. If Dad chooses to file, he'll likely get at least joint legal custody with visitation.
