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.

How does a father relinquish rights in MN?

If you truly mean rights (such as visitation), you can just walk away. However, In Indiana, a father cannot "relinquish" parental obligations such as support unilaterally. This is true unless something else happens such as the mother remarries and her new husband legally adots the child or the child becomes legally emancipated. Otherwise, you sre stuck, so to speak, with the obligations of a father until the child is an adult. Interesting to note that the woman can relinquish her obligations to a child before (abortion) or after birth (adoption) but that in no state does the father have any post-conception decisions.
