1) Do I need permission from the mother of the child to sign over my rights?
2) If i signed over my rights legally I am no longer the father so I would have to pay child support?

if it were that easy alot more guys would be doing it.. judges wont grant u to legally give up your rights bcuz they know u just dont want to pay.. the only way a judge will grant it if the mom gets married and husband wants to adopt. but they arent going to let u give up your rights so u dont have to pay.

yes you do.All you are signing over is pretty much that you do not have to see the child or make any decisions for the child i.e where they live,where they travel...etc. But that does not change the fact that you will still have to help take care of the child because you created the baby just as well as her. Also keep in mind you are giving up a child and if you get older and change your mind it will be too late because you signed your rights over. you will not be able to take back what you have done.

The response from the timid woman is incorrect. You can choose to give up your rights to see the child, but in no way will that release you from any legal obligation to that child. A judge can decide that you have no more legal "rights" to the child (which is what you'd be filing for), but he will not dismiss your legal "obligation" to the child (which is what you're really wanting).

The only thing you will be giving up is your right to visitation. That will only hurt you! The right to visitation also gives you the right to a deduction in the payment amount. So do not do it.

All of this depends on some things. Such as what state you live in. I live in Pennsylvania and here you do have to have the permission of the mother to sign over your parental rights to a child and someone has to be there to pick them up. Ex. The mother has married and the step father wants to adopt the child.

The only other way to terminate parental rights is if you have done some criminal act and are no longer allowed to see your child.

If you signed over your rights then no, you would not have to pay child support any longer, however, you may be made to pay child support up until that point in certain circumstances.

Legally, a child will always have a father. Once you are established as it, you are it. If you could just sign over your rights and have no obligation to the child without the mother's consent (or a judge's) there would be no such thing as a deadbeat dad.

Rights are separate from responsibilities. You are not obligated to see a child you have no interest in, but you are obligated to support them (at least financially).
