You might.
There are two different concepts going on here. One is parental rights; you can sign those away because they're yours.
The other is the child's rights. You can't sign those away because they're not yours, and the child can't sign them away because as a minor he or she is legally incompetent.
One of the child's rights is the right to support. If the child's mother is supporting the child fine on her own, she's not legally obligated to seek support from you, so you might not ever have to pay support.
If the child's mother's situation changes so that she's no longer able to support the child on her own, you might wind up having to pay child support. If she's on any form of government assistance, the government may insist upon it.
