I am the parent of the above-identified child(ren). I hereby consent to the placement of the above-identified child(ren) for adoption and to the legal adoption of said above-identified child(ren) by adoptive parent(s) selected and approved by the person or agency named on Page 1 of this General Consent to Adoption. I understand that after I sign this General Consent to Adoption and after a Decree of Adoption is filed by the Court, the legal name of the child(ren) may be changed and all of my parental rights as well as responsibilities for said child(ren) will be terminated. I further understand that after I sign this General Consent to Adoption and after a Decree of Adoption is filed by the Court, I will no longer have any legal right or responsibility to provide care, guidance, and control for said child(ren). I further understand that by signing this General Consent to Adoption and after a Decree of Adoption is filed by the Court, I will no longer have any legal right to visit with said child(ren). I declare that no representations have been made to me, by anyone, which would serve in any way to limit the complete surrender of all my parental rights intended by this consent or to limit the parental rights to be acquired by the proposed adoptive parent(s). I further understand that after this consent has been signed by me, the consent will be valid and binding, even though I may be under the age of 18 years. I further understand that after the child(ren) has/have started to reside with the above-named adoptive parent(s) or after this consent has been filed with the Court in an adoption proceeding by the proposed adoptive parent(s), this consent may not be withdrawn or repudiated without the written order of a judge who has jurisdiction in adoption proceedings, based upon written finding, supported by proof to be submitted by me, that the withdrawal of my consent would be in the best interest of the child(ren). No one has forced or coerced me to sign this General Consent to Adoption. No one has made any promises whatsoever to me in return for signing this General Consent to Adoption. I have not been offered nor have I accepted any reward or money in exchange for signing this General Consent to Adoption. I waive further notice of any proceedings regarding the adoption of the child(ren), however if the adoption fails to be granted, I want to be given notice. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12.

I have been advised of the requirements of Section 578-15 of the Hawai`i Revised Statutes regarding confidentiality of the court's adoption file. When my child become 18 years old, my child or the adoptive parents can request, in writing, to see the court's file regarding this adoption. If I do not want the Family Court to reveal my identity to my child or the adoptive parents, I must file an affidavit requesting confidentiality with the Family Court (on this island that the adoption occurred) within ninety (90) calendar days before my child(ren)'s 18th birthday. This affidavit is good for ten (10) years. After that, I can file an affidavit every ten (10) years or I can file an affidavit to keep my identity confidential for the rest of my life. All affidavits must be filed within ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the previous affidavit. After my child(ren) reach/reaches 18 years old, I can request to see the court's adoption file, too, but my child(ren) has/have the same rights as I do to keep the file confidential. My decision to keep my information confidential or not applies to only me and does not apply to the other natural parent. I can agree to open up the adoption file at any time and my child(ren) can, too, after turning 18 years old. It will be my responsibility to keep the Family Court informed of my current address if I want disclosure to be made. The Family Court has no responsibility to notify the child(ren), adoptive parent(s) or the natural parent(s) of any deadlines or expiration dates. Signature of Parent 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 22.
