Yes, a parent in South Carolina can voluntarily terminate their parental rights. However, they may still be required to pay child support. Only adoption will absolutely terminate child support.
Relinquishing parental rights does not terminate one's child support obligation. But if you're the one petitioning this, the court is going to question why you would want to retain it while cutting off his access to the child?
Legally he can't. The parent of a child cannot arbitrarily give up that child and be relieved of the obligation of financial support without following the legal procedure as prescribed by the laws of the state where the child resides.
I am not sure what it is there. But here in Ohio after 1 year of a parent not paying support and/or having any visitaions, then if you take them to court you can have them sign off all parental rights for abandonment. The best thing to do is contact a lawyer for a free consultation and get their advice.
Yes, but ordinarily this happens with the court's blessing and preparatory to an adoption.
With court approval and provided welfare is not involved. see links
That depends on the legal guardians or adoptive parents who may not want you to complicate their life. Once you "sign off" your parental rights you have no rights regarding the children.

Yes.
Only the court can do that.
Yes you can sign over your rights to the one child and not the others. However on child support you will not have to pay on the one you signed off on but as for the others that you claim yes you will pay. 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.
The mother aborts, the father can't see links below
Was it approved by the courts? You cannot simply sign a paper to give up rights. If not, he need only file while in possession of the child. What are the home circumstances of the mother? A child is still better off with the father if they are not safe with the mother.
Only the court can terminate your parental rights and then you are still required to pay child support unless the child is adopted.
No. You would be signing away your rights to visitation. A parent generally signs away their rights in preparation for a legal adoption.
Yes, and the agreement of the courts.
You would have to call the court house for legal papers on terminating parental rights.
Laws vary from state to state, but in most cases a person can only sign off rights to a child if antoher party, for example a step father was willing to adopt.
Typically yes, but that may vary state to state.
