My ex boyfriend wants to sign away his rights from his daughter so that he doesn't have to pay child support. I really don't want this to happen is there anyway I can say no to him not paying child support.

Well just tell him you have a sure fire way for him to possibly pay no child support at all. He can go to jail and sit there for the next 18 years. He might even get relief from the courts on the child support.

Ok, back to the real world. Unless there is an adoption or his DNA doesn't jive with the child's DNA then he is going to pay or at least be responsible to pay (important because it lasts a lifetime and never goes away) child support. It is HIS obligation under the law to take care of his child and if he's not wanting to do it willingly then it will be by force.

Not only do you not want this to happen but the LAW does not allow it to happen. Your boyfriend does not know the law. Tell him he has no choice in the matter. Tell him that you will file for support and there is nothing he can do about it.

You go to Court and he explains why he doesn't want to pay support and the Court explains why he WILL pay support. Your child is then protected by a Court Order.

Tell your boyfriend he needs to read up on how this works.

I would love to be there when he tells the judge that he wants to give up his rights so he doesn't have to pay support.

Yes! You can stop you boyfriend from doing this.
Take it to Court.. and just say that you do not agree with you boyfriend - and that you DO want child support.
Is your boyfriend on the Birth Certificate as the child's father?. if not, a DNA report needs to be made.
The law is in place to protect children in this situation.. the Courts frown upon Dad's who don't want the responsibility... he'll get to pay child support whether he wants it, or not.

I would even go a little further, stop talking to him about what he will or won't do. Talk to your attorney.
File for custody, and file for child support ordered though the court. Who cares what he wants, just laugh at him if you want to do anything. File in court, he can not give up his rights and if you file for support will have to pay.

Yes !! You can stop you bf from doing this.

It is not a matter of agreeing or disagreeing with the boyfriend. She does NOT go to court to agree or disagree with him. She goes to court and files a petition for child support. She simply attests to the fact that he is the father and she expects him to support his child.
