Last name and custody

Hi, i want to ask po. Hindi po kasi pumirma tatay ng baby ko sa birth certificate niya and now gusto ng tatay ng baby ko na gamitin last name niya and makuha custody ng baby namin. Pero ayaw kong ipagamit kasi binabantaan niya ko. May chance ba na makuha niya custody ng baby ko and mapalitan last name ng baby ko kahit na hindi ako pumayag? Thank you.

Hindi po. Ayon po sa R.A. 9255 na kung ndi kasal ang magulang ay apelyido ng ina ang gagamitin ng bata. "8.1  As  a rule, an illegitimate child not acknowledged  by the father  shall use the surname of the mother. 8.2  Illegitimate child acknowledged by the father shall  use the surname of the mother if no AUSF Affidavit to Use the Surname of the Father (AUSF) is executed. 8.3  An illegitimate child aged 0-6 years  old acknowledged  by the father shall  use the surname of the father, if the mother or the guardian , in the absence of the mother , executes the AUSF. 8.4  An illegitimate child aged 7 to  17 years  old  acknowledged  by the father  shall use the surname of the father if the child executes  an AUSF fully  aware of  its consequence  as attested  by the  mother or guardian . 8.5  Upon reaching the age of majority , an illegitimate child acknowledged by the  father shall use the surname of his father  provided that  he executes an AUSF without need of any attestation ." Ang bata nasa custody talaga ng nanay unless mapatunayan ng DSWD na nagpabaya o may kapabayaan tsaka lang ibinigay sa IMMEDIATE relative para maging guardian ng bata. Punta po kayo sa Women and Children's Desk sa Bgy niyo po para ndi kayo bulabugin niyang ama at maobliga siya magbigay ng pinansyal n suporta. Please refer to R.A. 9262/Violence Against Women and their Children (VAWC) Act. Hindi lang po physical abuse ang tinutukoy at sakop ng batas na yan. Financial, psychological/mental and emotional abuse po ang sakop niyan. Pwede po yan gamitin pagharap sa bgy.
