In today’s blog we will focus on parental rights and the different ways they can be terminated. As stated earlier there is voluntary and involuntary termination.

Voluntary Termination of Parental Rights (TPR)

Voluntary TPR is just that, voluntary and can happen in a number of situations. Some examples of parents who may want to do this include:

If the termination of parental rights has been granted than the children’s division (CD) can implement the permanency plan. If it’s denied and the CD wishes to make an appeal, it must be filed within forty days of the date the court denied the petition.

Involuntary Termination of Parental Rights (TPR)

The most common grounds for determining a parent is unfit to parent a child may include:

Each state is responsible for establishing its own grounds and they vary state by state. Involuntary termination of parental rights may be appropriate when there is clear evidence that one or more of the specified grounds exist in a case. It all depends on what is in the best interest of the child.

Children can be innocent and afraid when they are not in the right household situation. Do what’s best for your child and have their best interests at heart. Our children are our future and they need the best upbringing possible. When you hire our family law firm at the Lake of the Ozarks, you can rely on us to always attempt to negotiate a fair resolution without the need for costly and painful litigation.
