Do you have to pay child support after you give up your rights?

Exactly HOW do you think you managed to "give up your rights" anyway?

I really want to hear this one...


Because it actually takes a Court to do it... you don't get a form off the back of a cereal box.

1. Except to allow a step parent adoption, you can not "give up your rights" if it was that easy, there would not be 1000's of non custody parents in jail tonight for non payment of child support.

So unless there is a step parent adoption you can not just sign away your rights.

In step parent adoptions, current support ends, but past support not paid is still owed.

If for some reason you can get your rights taken away, long term prison sentence, child molestation charges and other issues, you can still be liable for support normally.

So lets pretend you could sign them over, just to get out of the responsibility to help care for a child, you would still owe support. So if you want to give up your rights, just don't enforce them. Don't call, don't go visit, don't have a say about school, doctors, just write that check each month
