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.

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.

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.

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.

Can a father sign over parental rights to an unborn child in Alabama?

That is a decision made by the court. A court can grant a partial or complete Termination of Parental Rights if the judge feels it is warranted for reasons other than said parent is relieved of his or her financial obligation to their minor child/children. Generally voluntary TPR's (those requested by a parent) are only granted when a child is being legally adopted.

If you terminate parental rights in Oklahoma to a child do you still have to pay child support?

Parental rights and parental duties are not the same thing. If you terminate your parental rights you may no longer visit the child or contact him. However, in many states, including Oklahoma, you may still have an obligation to pay support. This can vary by individual circumstances, so it's best to check with and attorney.

Can a parent legally stop their 18 plus year old from marrying a specific person because they dont like them?

It depends on where you are. In the US, 18 is the age of majority, however, in other places, the age of majority is 19 or 21, and therefore 18 would not be an adult. Once a person has reached the age of majority, parental consent is no longer required to marry. A legal adult can marry whomever he/she chooses, free from parental interference. However, in the same vain, the parents are no longer required to offer any support to the 18 year old. Marrying against the parents' will or going against the parents in other ways may lead to loss of parental financial support or other unanticipated consequences.
