My father would like to adopt my little girl so that she would be covered by his *very good* health insurance, and also to get her birth father to give up his parental rights, in case something should happen to me. Is it possible for my father to adopt her without giving up my parental rights? Thanks in advance.

Due to my circumstances, I have found out that grandparents do NOT have to adopt in order to put their grandchildren on their insurance. They only need legal guardianship. Please read what happened to me. I hope that you will not go through with the adoption. After the adoption is final, you will have no say. I know you're saying, "My father would never do anything like that." Well, I didn't think my father would either, but he did and now each day without my child is a living hell.
