AnswerIt is possible to voluntarily relinquish parental rights if you meet the TPR requirements pursuant to the laws of the state. (Side bar: Don't expect a friendly reception from the presiding magistrate.)

In most cases, you will still have to pay child support, even if you voluntarily sign away parental rights.

Can you sign your rights away and not have to pay child support?

Yes, but the mother/father has to agree. In general, parental rights are terminated either preparatory to an adoption, or after a trial in which it is determined that the parent is unfit. In any case, termination of parental rights does not, in itself, terminate child support.

If a father signs away all rights and stops child support does the mother have to agree?

Yes. The court's job is to decide what is in the child's best interest. Even if the father does not want to see the child, why would it be in the child's best interest to give up child support for the child? There are, of course, exceptions, such as when the father is so bad for the child that giving up child support is better than having him around.


If a father signed over parental rights does he still have to pay child support or medical expenses?

I don't see how. But the laws are all messed up on this check into your state laws. I don't think he can just sign over parental rights he has to sign them over to someone or the mother has to agree if that is the case most likely he will not have to pay support.

In most cases, a parent's decision to relinquish parental rights is voluntary. The other parent's feelings generally make no difference.


What are the steps and obligations involved when an unmarried mother is seeking child support?

The first step would be to establish legal paternity. This requires filing documents in court and is typically accomplished through DNA testing which can be done voluntarily with the alleged father's consent. If he does not consent, the mother can petition the court to order the putative father to submit to testing.Once paternity has been established, the father can then choose to pay child support and request visitation rights or he can choose to terminate his parental rights. In some cases, the termination of rights would also end the obligation for child support, especially if the mother has remarried and her new husband wishes to adopt the child. Some courts will also allow the mother to agree that she no longer needs the financial support. However, there are just as many cases where the father is allowed to terminate his rights but must continue to pay support for the child. Remember, the court always uses the "best interest of the child" standard and if it is deemed that the financial support is needed, then the father is responsible until the court says otherwise. If the father chooses to keep his parental rights, the court will issue an order to address child support, custody and visitation arrangements. In the event that paternity can't or hasn't been established, the court will not order the alleged father to pay child support. He can however, voluntarily choose to accept the responsibility.
