It would be best to terminate the parental rights and keep the child all to your self for legal purposes. Suppose after 6-7 years of marriage you or he file for divorce due to problems in the marriage, if he has adopted your daughter or has custody for your daughter than as part of the divorce/break up he will walk away with the child as per the current circumstances. This is why I emphasize to all our clients that, if you are terminating parental rights, no need to transfer to anyone or add custody. Just keep the child to yourself legally, if they want to be a part of the child life they can do so with no strings attached, for your benefits. Feel free to call my office for a free consultation.
