Utah judge dismisses adoption, paternity case goes to Colorado

Well, fuck me silly.

From another Utah birthfather's blog: "Carie Terry, the birth mother, also has filed a conditional motion requesting that her parental rights be terminated in Colorado but only after Manzanares’ rights are terminated."

The birthmother is going to assert her rights in Colorado. I bet you a million dollars.

“I believe Colorado will do what’s right and make a determination of the best interest of my daughter.

I doubt it. This guy's biological daughter is four years old now. I think the Colorado courts will treat her like a piece of inanimate property and give her back to the guy who "owns" her and was willing to spend a lot of time and money in court to assert those ownership rights. I think she is going to be taken away from the only parents she knows and handed over to a total stranger.

I've had two foster sons this past year who were both four years years old when they came to my home. I wish that I could let Mr. Manzanares inside my head so he could know what I know about the kind of damage a four-year-old takes when a representative of the government yanks them out of their home and takes them to live with strangers.

Since Mr. Manzanares obviously loves his daughter, I do not believe he would do that to her if he truly understood the hell it would put her through. I think he'd reach a legally enforceable agreement for shared custody and visitation.
