Rights or custody? A parent can always petition the court for termination of their parental rights and such a petition may or may not be granted depending on the circumstances. However such a termination does not end child support obligations. You may also petition the court to transfer custody or assign guardianship of a child to another individual. Whether or not this would be granted is up to the court hearing the case, whether or not there are any biological relatives willing to assume custody/guardianship and whether or not the person you choose would act in the best interests of the child (in the court's opinion).

Why does a parent in Ohio juvenile court who was found unfit still have visitation rights?
Often, just because a person is deemed unfit to parent, it doesn't mean they have no right to visit the child. The courts usually won't forbid a parent to have visitation rights, unless the parent has been proven to be physically harmful to the child. However, there are times when, if the court finds the parent's intentions towards the child 'suspect', but with no proof, they may allow only supervised visitation with the child. This means the parent can visit the child, but only with an approved adult present, such as another adult relative, or even a social worker.
In Ohio does a father have parental rights if he does not pay child support?

Can a noncustodial parent take a child out of the state of Ohio to the state of Michigan and be legally granted full custody of a child without the custodial parent being notified?
No, and you would be breaking a ton of laws as you have to get custody rights first, and have the other parent either stripped of their rights or they have denounced their rights. Otherwise, a judge is definitely going to send you to jail for kidnapping and will just as likely deny any appeal for custody.

Can you voluntarily terminate your parental rights in Ohio?
Ohio has laws that allow the a parent to file a Termination of Parental Rights petition. Whether that petition is granted and to what extent is decided by the court based on the individual case circumstances. The voluntary relinquishment of parental rights is generally granted to allow a child/children to be a candidate for adoption. The court will not grant a TPR when its sole purpose is for a parent to escape financial obligations to their minor children.
