There are really only two ways you can voluntarily terminate your parental rights.

A - The child is determined to not be yours,

B - The custodial parent requests it, for example, if they are remarrying and want you to transfer the rights to the new partner, and you agree to this.

There is never any scope to terminate the rights 'just because' you want to.

How to give up parental rights to eighteen year old?

In the majority of US states an 18-year-old is considered a legal adult although there are exceptions, such as Alabama where the AOM is 19. In most cases there would be no point in filing for termination of parental rights unless the person is mentally and/or physically impaired and the custodial parent(s) wished to be relieved of the responsibility. The other exception would be if there is an existing child support order that stipulates an age above the state's age of majority, in which case the requesting parent would have to file suit to have the order amended or cancelled, not to have parental rights terminated.
