Any parent can file for the voluntary termination of parental rights even if the other biological parent opposes the action.
Whether or not the TPR will be granted and to what extent depends upon the laws of the state where the child or children live and if the judge believes the granting of such would be in the best interest of the child or children.
TPR's are not granted on the basis of what the requesting parent wants, especially when it is a matter of being relieved of their financial obligations.
