I'm paying child support for 14yrs and the only thing, I know about the child is his name. I want to give up my rights to him because, I have no idea what he looks like or what he like in life and don't know where he is at could, I stop paying child support on my child.

No. This is YOUR child. When you chose to have sex with his mother, you took on a responsibility to support any possible child from that action.

You cannot just give up your rights, only a court can terminate rights and they will not do so, just to let you out of paying support.

So the question now becomes why don't you see the child? Have you gone to court for visitation rights?

[Synnen]

Why would a court terminate your rights? You're not even USING your rights.

Not that you have much of a chance of it happening anyway, since the only reason you want to do so is to get out of your OBLIGATION. That's right: child support is an OBLIGATION, not a RIGHT.

You want to see the child? Go to court and get a visitation plan put in place.

You are, however, NOT going to get out of child support unless the other parent re-marries and that spouse wants to adopt your child.

[Fr_Chuck]

You have always had the ability to see your child, you are the only reason you don't. So no you can not give up rights just because you don't use them.

It's parental rights, not child rights.
