This includes a parent who has been incarcerated, in rehabilitation, on probation, under investigation by child protective services, etc. Even when there is an absentee parent authorities must use all means available to locate said person before a TPR can be granted or permanently ordered by the court.

∙ 12y agoIf you're in the US, then no. Termination of parental rights (which is a different thing than custodial rights) has to be approved by a judge, and generally speaking, unless it is for the purpose of adoption (where someone else is willing to assume those parental responsibilities), it is not approved.

How do you find information on making a father relinquish his rights and when a father relinquishes his parental rights is he still obligated to pay court-ordered child support in the state of Iowa?
Relinquishing parental rights does not terminate one's child support obligation. But if you're the one petitioning this, the court is going to question why you would want to retain it while cutting off his access to the child?
If your children have already been adopted can you still get them back?
If "taken away" means the the court permanently terminated parental rights or parental rights were voluntarily relinquished making the child eligible for adoption, then the answer is no; the biological parent(s) have no legal rights of any sort to the child. However, if the adoptive parents can voluntarily agree to the visitation of a biological parent without there being any action on the part of the court.
How do you stop child support if custodial parent doesn't want the money?
File suit to have the support order rescinded. However, child support and parental rights are two entirely different issues and a parent cannot be forced to relinquish his or her rights to their biological child. Voluntarily requesting child support termination does not affect the non custodial parent's custodial or visitation rights. The court will only terminate parental rights in cases of documented neglect and/or abuse, and sometimes not even then. In some instances rather than terminating rights supervised visitation will be ordered.

How do you go about having the babys father sign over his parental rights?
IF Months go by, and you havn't heard anything from the father, they really seem more interested in YOU then your child, don't call or anything on birthdays or Holidays, and personally won't claim the child... its all a mind game,they can't afford child support, and we find ourselves kicking oursleves in the "bum" wondering "Why him as the sperm donor?" If he won't sign over rights, then make sure that he understands that you want NOTHING from him. NOT A DOLLAR. I even told my daughters father that we "just don't and ever did exist anymore." When they are really worried about their paychecks instead of their KIDS its easy.... they sign so fast. SO MAKE IT CLEAR..... when the papers are signed, you have the right to change their name (birth certificate),and they are to NEVER contact you in any way. Unless hes a real loser, it isn't an easy thing for men to do. They have alot of pride, and some do get attached to their children. (If the moms lucky)
