What does it mean to have your custodial rights terminated?

This means you are giving up ALL LEGAL RIGHTS to a child that you have conceived. Once the legal papers are signed, you not longer are the legal father or mother to that child. You will never have any legal rights to the childs, live what so ever. You can not go for visitation, custody, have any say in any health, school, etc...etc. It's like you have now given the child up for adoption kinda thing. However, this does NOT MEAN that child can't contact you or have a relationship with you if it so chooses once legal age of adulthood. It's still your child, it's only a piece of paper. I know this personally as my spouse has done this with a former marriage. Option to sign over all custodial rights in leu of having to pay support and second husband adopt the child. Excepted only because family moved 8 hours away and would have no contact with the child anyway. She has since contacted us once she became a legal adult! Doesn't change blood, only on paper!
