I moved this to the family law forum where this question has been answered hundreds of times.

The only way this is going to happen is if the grandparents agree to adopt the kids. If you are paying child support they have little incentive to do so.

There seems to be this myth that a parent can just give up their rights and get out of paying support. That's all it is, a myth. The practical matter is that only a court can terminate parental rights and courts are VERY reluctant to do so. Generally they will only do so to clear the way for adoption or if the parent represents a danger to the child. And they will never do so just to allow a parent to get out of paying child support.

You don't say why the grandmother has custody or why you don't want to be with your kids, but you can forget about giving up ryour ights.

You could though the courts perhaps give them guardianship of the children, if the other parent agrees, but would be subject to paying support to them
