Atmore, AL asked in Family Law, Adoption, Child Custody and Civil Rights for Florida

Q: I have an open dcf case that isnt going good in florida and im pregnant again. My case worker is agaisnt me big time,

Im ready to throw in the towel and give my rights up to my current dcf case ( family first network ), meanwhile me and my current boyfriend live together and thats who im pregnant for now. I want to know if theres a way to give my rights up to him to the baby im carrying now at the hospital without a case worker getting their hands on the baby. Im willing to move out of our home if need be as long as the child can go to the father. He is clean, has job, house, no criminal record, ect. How can they take the unborn child from the father if he has nothing against him? Would our relationship get in the way?
