Signing over parental rights is just a temporary solution, if that. I would let the courts know the situation, and continue with your education to provide the best possible life for your little ones. Good luck!

It really isn't likely that a judge will allow you to sign over your rights at all. I am all for getting a better education but the kids still have to eat and still need cloths, they can't just hibernate while you get back on your feet. I would get a court date set to ask for a review of your case it is possible that your support could be lowered temporarily but all judged that I know of will tell you to work while going to school like sooooo many others have had to.

I have to agree with Stinawords. Good call!
