[QUOTE="witzend, post: 603101, member: 99"] I do not believe that you can get truly "terminated" parental rights back. They are only terminated when there is no hope that there will ever be a relationship, and it happens rarely as a measure to all parents who are not co-parenting in the same home with a child. Usually a non-custodial parent will have some sort of rights, visitation, some decision making, etc. Termination puts an end to that, and so far as I know there is nothing that can be done to change that. Perhaps a [I]drastic[/I] change in that parent's circumstances for the better coupled with the death of the other parent and all of their family. Think of it as a closed adoption. Your child might find out who you are, but you will never legally be their mother again. [/QUOTE]
