Yes, both parents do.
If you legally adopted the child, you would terminate your parental rights the same way you would with a biological child. Get a lawyer and go to court. However, keep in mind that if you legally adopted the child, terminating your parental rights does not terminate your legal relationship with the child. According to the law, you are the child's father and you will be required to pay child support. Terminating your parental rights will only relinquish your custody rights and your ability to make decisions on behalf of the 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.
Who legally adopted the child?If the mother's new husband legally adopted the child, then the biological father's parental rights had to be terminated first. Which means that the biological father is NOT obligated to pay child support anymore. The new adoptive father has taken on all rights and responsibilities for the child.
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.
That will happen if the child gets adopted not otherwise. Even if you give up your parental rights you still have to pay.
No. There is no requirement for the child to have to "know" the father for him to give up his parental rights.
