You should consult an attorney, but it's my understanding that parental rights and child support have nothing to do with each other. You may choose to give up any rights to your child, but that doesn't negate the fact that you're the child's father, and in the eyes of the law (and morally), you are partially responsible for supporting that child.

That said, it's your child you're talking about. You may want to consider alternatives to giving up your rights. A child deserves a father, and you Amy live to regret your decision.

Specific law may vary by province, but generally, termination of parental rights only terminates your right to see your child and/or have any say-so in their lives. It is in Canada as it is in the US, in that termination of parental rights does not absolve child support obligations unless and until the child is legally adopted by a third party who assumes all legal and financial responsibility for the child.

Who should pay child support if a woman becomes pregnant from a one night stand?

In most cases it doesn't really matter how the woman became pregnant. All that matters is if she is going to keep it and if she is going to take care of it personally. If the woman keeps and and assumes custodial rights, then the father should pay child support because he did help create the child and isn't providing for it otherwise. However, if she gives custodial rights to the father, then she should have to pay the child support for the aforementioned reasons.


Does a father still have to pay child support if the child support if the child no longer lives with the mother?

Yes, the father does have to pay child support married or not. As long as you ARE the father. If the father is ordered to pay child support by the court, then that order stands until the child is emancipated or if the order is modified.
