how to give up parental rights

how does one sign over parentl rights. i am married and had got another girl pregnant. she never told me she was expecting and al of a sudden i get papers telling to take a test by the state of ct. the test came back positive. about 10 men had to be tested. like i said i never knew untill 4 months after the birth. i never saw it or want anything to do with this child. i would of helped abort it if i was givin the notice of it. now i must pay. but i want to sign over my right to this child. what are my steps in doing so? i know i have to pay but i also know i can sign my rights over but what are the steps? the girl doesnt even have the child. dcyf has already stpped in and taken it from her and placed it with a family member.

You normally cannot do so unless another parent adopts the child.

My kids father is in and out of their lives on a regular. He does this thing I call VOOG (visit out of guilt), that's when he visit after feeling guilty about not seeing the kids as he should. I have ask him to give up his parental rights because he does not pay his child support nor does he help take care of the kids. He has said it would not be a problem to sign over his rights and I'm needing to know how do I get the process started.

he can agree not to see them but it is not binding if he changes his mind; a new father has to adopt them normally to end his rights and obligations 100%

you cannot sign over your rights to get out of your obligation to support the child. it doesnt happen that way. the girl would need to be married at least a year, and her husband willing to adopt. next time, think about that before you have unprotected sex with someone else besides your wife, you WILL be supporting this child wether you want to or not.

HOW CAN MY DAUGTHER'S FATHER GIVE UP PARENTAL RIGHTS? I WAS 16 YEARS OLD WHEN I HAD HER AND HE NEVER HELPED WITH ANY THING. TWO YEARS AGO I PUT HIM ON CHILD SUPPORT AND NOW A YEAR LATER HE CALLS ME SAYING HE IS NOT GOING TO PAY FOR A LITTEL GIRL THAT HE DOESN'T SEE AT ALL. HE NEVER WANTED ANY THING TO DO WITH HER AND NOW HE TELL ME THAT HE IS GOING TO BRING TO COURT. I TOLD HIM THAT IF HE GIVE UP PARENTAL RIGHTS TO ME THAN I WOULD TAKE HIM OFF CHILD SUPPORT WHICH I WILL. I MEAN HE IS A REAL BAD FATHER AND HE ONLY SEEN HER ABOUT TEN TIMES. I AM REALLY TRIED OF THIS AND ALL I WANT TO DO IS FOR HIM TO SIGN OVER HIS PARENTAL RIGHTS AND I NEED TO KNOW THE STEPS TO DO SO...THANK YOU SO MUCH

What state, or country are you in?

Are you married and if so, is your husband willing to adopt?

I am in the same situation except my son isn't born yet. The father broke up with me when I was two months pregnant. I am trying to figure out how to start the process of him giving up his rights to the baby, as he isn't a good role model for a child and has nothing to do with this one.

Easy just dont let him sign the birth certificate.

That answer above is partly true, but does not stop him from requesting visitation when he decides--if he ever does.
