How do you give up parental rights and no longer have financial responsability for the child in England?

Answer 1

Giving up your parental rights does not absolve you of paying child support. Parental rights has to do with custody and the right to make decisions in raising the child. Child support is providing material support for a child you sired to make sure he has what he needs to live. All states allow a parent to file for the termination of parental rights (TPR petition). The presiding judge makes the decision as to what extent those rights should be terminated including the cessation of financial obligations. The ending of parental financial obligations are generally allowed only when mitgating circumstances are present, such as the parental rights being terminated so the child/children become eligible for adoption.

Answer 2

If you're in the U.S., you can give up your parental rights, but that won't excuse you from financial responsibility. You will still be ordered to pay child support. Child support is not payment for rights to your child. It's court enforcement of parental responsibility. If paternity or maternity has been established, you'll be ordered to pay child support unless you find someone else to legally adopt the child. So, if you're the father and you surrender parental rights and the mother of the child's new husband or boyfriend legally adopts the child, then you could escape child support payments. But that's the only way.

Answer 3

To formally give up parental rights, you need a good reason. Giving them up so the child can be adopted, is one good reason. Giving them up to avoid financial obligations, is not.

Answer 4

A person can give up their parental rights by signing away their child to another adult. Then this adult will become the guardian of the child and get all the rights.
