In most cases the court has the power to permanently terminate parental rights but require the parent(s) to pay all or partial support of the minor child/children. Cases are adjudicated on an individual basis.

∙ 12y agoYou cannot just "give up" parental rights (which is a different thing than custodial rights). Termination of parental rights has to be approved by a judge and normally they will not approve it unless it's for the purpose of adoption. However, if your parental rights have indeed been terminated, then you are no longer responsible for supporting the child.

If the judge feels it is in the best interest of the child for the father to be removed from his or her life then child support obligations can also be terminated.
