Perhaps, even if the court grants a Termination of Parental Rights petition it does not mean the requesting parent will be relieved of his or her financial obligation, that decision is made by the judge. A TPR is not a venue to allow a parent to escape their financial obligation to a minor child, if that is the sole purpose of the petition it will not be granted. Generally a TPR is only granted to allow a minor child to be eligible for legal adoption by a new spouse or party.

What is the mother right if the father dont want kids?

The mother's right is to sole legal and physical custody of the children and the right to obtain child support for her children. Depending on her state of residence, the mother may also petition the court to have the father's parental rights terminated or request the state do the same if she cannot do it herself. Termination of parental rights does not terminate child support obligations.


Can a mother claim child support if her rights were taken due to drug charges?

No. If her parental rights have been revoked by the court she would not have custody of a minor child and therefore not eligible for funds to support that child. If child support were being paid before the mother's rights were terminated that support now belongs to the person(s) or agency having legalcustody of the child.


If a father dies leaving wife and children Then wife leaves children to mother-in-law does wife have to pay child support?

Yes. It is only fair that the mother has to pay child support. It is no different than if a woman and a man had separated and the mother was a single mother that he would have to pay child support. It is about the welfare of the children, not about who is taking care of the children.

If a father is paying child support and health insurance on children but has had no contact with mother or children since the children were born what are his legal rights?

He has the exact same rights to the child as the mother does. Don't let the mother or ANYONE tell him any different. All he needs to do is contact an attorney or legal help service and file a parenting plan. They will guide him through the legal rights to help serve a parenting plan giving him the option to be a part of his child's life.
