Contact the office of the clerk of the probate court in the county in which you reside for the forms and procedures for filing a voluntary relinquishment of parental rights.

Can a man sign away his rights to his children and how?

In most states it is possible to voluntarily relinquish parental rights. States establish their own laws pertaining to domestic issues, therefore you would need to consult the laws pertaining to the procedure in the state where the children reside. There are specific TPR requirements that must be met before relinquishment of parental responsibility is granted. The usual reason is to enable the child/children to become eligible for adoption. Although it is not impossible to achieve, courts are extemely reluctant to allow termination parental rights as a means of escaping financial obligations.
