There are not sufficient facts here. There is no statute that says the child can't. Has there been an adjudication of paternity? Is there a court order in place? If there is no adjudication of paternity the father has no real right to the child, and mom is in the driver's seat. Please repost this question with more facts and I will attempt to answer your question.
