Nickel said:Right, but the way Suz paints this picture, her son would contest an adoption. In your case, the father couldn't be served, and therefore forfeited his rights. I am very aware of Maryland's adoption laws.
Yes, the bio-father did forfeit his rights in our case. However, if Suz's son is aware of a custody hearing and/or the attempt of the baby's mother's parents to gain custody and does nothing to object, he is in fact forfeiting his rights as well.
