My son's mother wants me to give up parental rights. I pay child support but don't get to see my child. She wants me to still pay child support but not have anything to do with my child. How do I fight this

Go to Child Services and see what they have to say.

I know in Kentucky, child support has nothing to do with visitation privileges.

In my son's case, he had to file suite in Juvenile and Domestic Court to get visitation rights.

Also, as to the termination of your rights, if you do not want them terminated, just say no. She would then have to take you to court to prove you are unfit or a danger to the child.

I am by no means an attorney but that’s what we went through.

Good luck and don’t give up the fight for your child.

You can't just give up your rights. There is a sticky at the top of this forum that deals with the issue. It will answer most of your questions.

Only a court can terminate rights and courts will NOT do so to let a parent out of paying support.

Why don't you see your child?

Note: Any question on law needs to include a general area as laws vary by area.

You should set up times to see child when possible. Have teleconference with child.

But unless the other parent is remarried and they want to adopt, most likely you can't even sign over your rights. And what rights, you never see the child anyway?

But unless she is remarried and they want to adopt, normally if there is a way to give up your rights ( seldom happens) you still pay child support

And that matters how?

Sure it makes visitation harder, put you have rights, fight for them!

Thank you for your service. It is most appreciated.

Ever hear of air commercial planes? They carry people not weaps to airports all over the world.

I think this would still be a Civil Matter and not a Military Court matter.

Why not ask for some legal advice from a JAG Attorney? That can at least get you started.

More than likely you will be advised to institute a Civil Suite in the City/State where the child resides.
