    Parental Rights
    I would like to know are you still obligated to pay child support in the state of Georgia if you would like to sign over all parental rights to the child.

    Parental rights and parental obligations are two different things. YES you are still obligated to pay child support if you give up your right to have any say in how the child is raised.

    The only thing that generally stops you from having to pay child support is if someone adopts your child.

    Yes, signing over your rights does not relieve you of your obligations to support your child.
