He Can Give Up All He Wants !!!!! And The Money TOO !! He Has To Pay For His Childs Welfare And Health Insurance. NO HE CAN`T Beat The System Tell Dear Old Dad To Hand It Over. * Perhaps. The extent to which a Termination of Parental Rights petition is granted depends upon the circumstances. Generally a full TPR is granted to allow the child to be eligible for adoption. In such a case the biological parent(s) would no longer be responsible for any financial obligations. The same applies if the court permanently terminates parental rights due to abuse or neglect. In other situations the decision is based on what is in the best interest of the child and not on the preference of either parent.

Voluntary termination of parental rights in Texas?
If a male is named as the father of a child when the couple are not married he cannot request the relinquishment of parental rights until paternity has been established. If the paternity test shows he is not the biological father, he can file suit in family court to be relieved of this financial and parental obligations. The same basic premise applies in the case of married couples with the exception that, the male is assumed to be the father unless only he contests the fact and he must be legally separated or divorced from the biological mother at the time of contestation.

There is no action of the sort referred to possible in any U.S. state.
