From a legal standpoint, a father has no rights over the unborn child. Roe vs. Wade took care of that. But if the mother decides on having the baby, the father becomes responsible. * Any parent can file a Termination of Parental Rights (TPR) petition in the appropriate state court in the city or county of residence. Such a petition cannot be filed nor can child support or custodial issues be addressed until the child is born and paternity has been established.
tell the person who you are having a baby with and then give up your rights.
Yes, a father can give up his parental rights but he still have to pay child support.
Whatever the court documents give him. Not paying child support does not automatically remove any rights from him.
In general, parental rights are terminated either preparatory to an adoption, or after a trial in which it is determined that the parent is unfit. In any case, termination of parental rights does not, in itself, terminate child support.
It can be very complicated depending upon the laws of the state in which the couple reside and whether or not the biological father disagrees with the adoption. If the child is a result of an affair during the marriage, the court rarely intervenes if the husband accepts the child as his own, even if the biological father files for parental rights. If the child was conceived out of a relationship before the woman married, then no action can be taken until the child is born, parentage is established and the biological father voluntarily relinquishes his parental rights. If the biological father forfeits his rights to the child, the couple can petition the court for the husband to legally adopt said child. A biological parent CANNOT be forced to give up his parental rights to a child except by a court when it pertains to matters of abuse, neglect, etc. Please be advised, this is the basic legal procedure, exact information pertaining to the issue should be obtained from an attorney licensed to practice family law in the state where the couple reside.

No, the child has to be born first.
No. There is no requirement for the child to have to "know" the father for him to give up his parental rights.
Yes, a father can give up his parental rights but he still have to pay child support.
i would like to know what papers do i need to have the father of my child sign to give up all his rights to my child financial and emotional and physical rights
No he does not because he is not the child's parent anymore.
no
No. The biological father can give up his rights and if your husband then want to be more than a step parent, who have no rights to the child, can adopt your child. Or not, that is your choice as the parent.
He essentially give up everything. The child is no longer his legally. He has no responsibilities toward the child and has no visitation rights.
The child's father is going to have to give up his rights first. You cannot adopt a child, if both parents do not agree.
what is going to happen when i give up my right as a father? will i still have to pay child support?
Yes,
