Voluntarily or involuntarily? There are separate statutes covering each scenario. (In either types of termination, the obligation to pay child support does not end unless the child is being legally adopted).

Can you terminate a fathers prenatal rights if he is no where to be found?
A father has no prenatal rights. However, you may terminate his parental rights via court order if he has been absent from the child's life for a specific period of time as outlined by your state's laws.
If a father had no choice in the pregnancy also was led to believe there was three other fathers what rites does he have to sign his rites over?
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. BTW, there's no such thing as "three other fathers."
Can a mother object to fathers parental rights being terminated if she is on welfare?
Yes you can object. Generally a court will only terminate a parent's rights in order to allow a legal adoption to proceed or in cases of extreme abuse or neglect. A father cannot ask for his parental rights to be terminated simply to avoid paying child support.
Can the courts take the fathers parental rights away with or without his concent?
Yes. Courts in all 50 states have the right to involuntarily terminate parental rights however the circumstances in which they may do so vary from state to state. A parent may also voluntarily terminate their rights by petitioning the court with good reasons why it should be done, however terminating rights does not terminate the obligation to pay child support which continues until the child reaches the age of majority where they reside (or longer, in some states if the child remains in school and is unmarried) or if the child is placed for adoption, or the custodial parent marries and their new spouse adopts the child.
