All parental rights? That depends on state law where you live (or country if outside of the US). Some states have no provision for voluntary termination of parental rights and in most cases, those that do only allow it in preparation for adoption (sole physical and legal custody by one parent doesn't count). And even if you can terminate your parental rights, that will not terminate your obligation to pay child support. All it will do is terminate your right to see your child and have any say-so in their life.

∙ 11y agoIf the child is being put up for adoption yes, but you just cannot terminate parental rights because you feel like it. Otherwise, there would be a boatload of parents not paying child support or assuming other parental responsibilities.
The court may involuntarily terminate parental rights under very specific circumstances.

∙ 10y agoIt's the court who decides whether he is allowed to terminate them or not and they would not allow it for that reason. And he would still have to pay child support. The court would probably wonder if you were a fit parent by trying to take the other parent away from the child. The court see it as in the best interest of the child to have access to both parents. It's the child's right. And you would have to explain it one day to your child who never got to know her father or his side of the family.

Can the non custodial parent sign for you to get married if you live with them in Tennessee?
That depends on whether the non custodial parent has any legal custodial rights and whether those rights are sole or joint. If the non-custodial has sole legal custody, probably. If not, then no, not for a minor child, not without the permission of the parent with sole or joint legal custody. There are different types of custody, physical and legal. Check your custody order before you proceed to get an answer, or contact an attorney.

What rights does a non custodial parent have if they sign over custody to mother and step father?
