Exceptions For Alien Adopter
“If the natural father, being an absentee, appears to have abandoned the child,
the Supreme Court has held that the consent of the biological parent is not an
absolute requisite such as when the natural parents have abandoned their children,
consent by the guardian ad litem suffices (Santos versus Aranzanso G.R. No. L-23828.
February 28, 1966). If this is the case, then the natural father’s consent may be
dispensed with.”
