    I doubt in the US there is any law that would make a parent do this. I can't understand why he would not.

    Can you provide more info

    You can sue the parent for paternaty. I'm assuming the father is American. If so once you win the paternity and can prove your child was born in that country the child would get it automatically.

    Probably yes, but I guess the case will be dismissed with prejudice.
