It depends. Its possible your parental rights were terminated by a court. In that case you wouldn't have to sign anything. But if that didn't happen, then they can't offer your kid up for adoption without your consent.

You need to ask Youth Services how they think they can do it. You may need an attorney to protect your rights.

A tip for future reference. The subject line is supposed to be used to briefly describe your problem to help attract people who can help. We know you need help because you are posting. A subject like daughter being adopted without my permission would have been a better subject.
