#ChooseGoldmanLaw

If your ex-spouse has been out of your child's life for a long time, you may be wondering if you can take away their parental rights. The answer is that it depends.

*You cannot simply terminate someone's parental rights because they have not been exercising them. *You can file a petition to suspend your ex's parenting time and recalculate child support based on zero overnights instead of the two overnights they are supposed to have. *If there is a history of abuse or neglect, a governmental agency may file a petition to terminate your ex's parental rights. *You can ask the court to fashion an order that reflects the reality of the situation, which may mean suspending your ex's parenting time until further notice. *The court is wise to people who try to manipulate the system and will no doubt fashion an order that is reflective of the appropriate reality.

If you are concerned about your ex's lack of involvement in your child's life, you should talk to an attorney to discuss your options.
