Can the child's parents give it up?

Parents can write a statement of refusal of the child, on the basis of which they are deprived of parental rights, which entails a number of restrictions. Parents deprived of parental rights cannot participate in the upbringing and development of the child, cannot be legal representatives of the child, will be deprived of benefits that belong to parents with children, cannot inherit from the child, cannot count on support from the child in case of incapacity. At the same time the parents retain the obligation to provide for the child (pay alimony). Also, deprivation of parental rights does not deprive the child of the right to inheritance.

If a woman made a similar decision in the maternity hospital, she can also write a statement about giving up the child in the maternity hospital. In this case, all documents are transferred from the maternity hospital to the guardianship authorities, and the child is placed in the baby's home. In case of voluntary relinquishment of the child, the mother is not deprived of parental rights for six months - by law, she is given time to think and possibly change her decision. After this period, a guardian may be appointed for the child.
