A procedure for voluntary termination of the parent-child relationship is initiated

when a child placing agency or the office of family and children accepts the parent's consent to the termination of the parent-child relationship and files the necessary petition with the juvenile court. A parent does not have the authority to file directly for termination of his/her parental rights because a parent has the duty to support and care for the child until the child is emancipated. And as such, terminating parental rights may not and often does not terminate obligation to pay child support unless the child is being adopted.
