Who has the most rights to a child?
When a child is born during a marriage, the husband is presumed to be the father of the child. If the parents were never married, the mother has sole legal and physical custody until a court order says differently. An unmarried father has no legal rights to custody or visitation of the child.
Who owns the child father or mother?
BOTH parents have the obligation to teach the child what they need to know to grow up and become a decent human being. Parents have equally the right to care for the child, to love them and to raise the child but the parent does not own the child. Neither parent has more rights than the other with the child.
