Being a disabled father can I voluntarily terminate my parental rights?

You cannot do anything without going to court and most likely no, unless there is someone willing to step up in your place. Good luck

Why do you want to terminate your rights?

You can't just do this. There are guidelines in place and I don't think being disable is one of them.

It is almost impossible to terminate your rights. If they ARE terminated (for whatever reason) you still owe child support unless the child is adopted by someone.

Honest to God I wish these dead beat dads could, their chidren deserve so much better than a man who wants nothing to do with their children, It just makes me sick to my heart.

And no what does being disabled have to do with anything, so you get the child support reduced to your current pay level and you have more time to spend with the kids.

The invisible ink part of this story is, "I don't really care about parental rights because I don't see them/don't want to see them. I do care about support, which I don't want to pay."

I'm not a dead beat dad, I have complete custody of my 17 year old who doesn't want to be here. She's taken care of very well. She's recently revealed she's bi-sexual and is not coming home on weekends and laughs in my face about it. After hitting a utility pole head on on a motorcycle, having extensive brain surgery, my skull rebuilt, 32 compound fractures between my hip and the floor. I'll sop there, get the picture? I'm supposed to be retarded in a wheel chair the rest of my life. So Chuck stick to Christianity, seems you know very little about disability and probably everything else. God saved me, hope he's looking out for you and your narrow mind.

First, the only thing we have to go on is what you post. We have dealt with hundreds of questions like your original post. The vast majority of them are from parents wanting to get out of paying support by relinquishing their rights. Since you didn't explain yourself, you have no justification for attacking any of us for making what is a logical assumption.

Since you have, now, given us additional information, you still leave the question open as to why you want to terminate your rights? What do you think that will accomplish for you? If you explain that, we may be able to give you the advice you need.
