Yes. Such an action must be filed in the court of jurisdiction (where the child legally resides). However termination of parental rights does not automatically terminate child support obligations. This usually happens only if the child is being adopted. All that termination of rights will accomplish is ending the right to see their child or have any say-so in their lives.

Your thinking seems a bit wrong - if you have fathered a child then bringing THAT child up to adulthood is YOUR responsibility - why should other people pay for YOUR child (they have children of their own to raise and need their money for that) - whether or not you give up your rights to see the child has no bearing on your responsibility (to pay) for the upbringing of that child.

Yes, however terminating parental rights does not terminate child support obligations unless the child is being adopted. All it will do is terminate the father's right to visit their child and/or have any decision making power in their lives.
