In many states, you can voluntarily terminate your parental rights, but in doing so, that does not absolve you of certain parental responsibilities, such as child support. All it does is strip you of any physical presence or decision making in your child's life. If you're going to be paying support anyway, why would you want to do that? Children need both of their parents.

In the UK, if you are married when your children are born, you both automatically have parental rights.
