Any parent can give up their parental rights and a lot of them do simply because they believe that once they do, they will not pay child support.

This is not the case.... Many states will schedule an investigation in order to find out the reason for giving up parental rights.

Also, in many cases, you will still PAY child support even if you have surrendered your rights.
