Can the father of an unborn child sign over his rights if both parents of the unborn child both agree to it? The father can agree to adoption prior to the child's birth. could the grandparent adopt the child and help the daughter raise the unborn child? No. Not allowed under Indiana law, and just taking away a father's rights without truly giving the baby two PARENTS when doing so is not good for the child.
