Giving up custody

I want to totally relinquish my parental rights (15 year old daughter) Not just give him full custody - but similar to giving her up for adoption. (parents who put their child up for adoption don't pay child support - this is what I mean) I know there is a way to do this, I need to know how. I live in Kansas

Ruchele -- You have no right to judge me. Judge not lest ye be judged. You do not know anything about circumstances. You do not know me, my child.... Unless you walk a mile in my shoes. Ever heard of sacrificing one for the good of the others....Sure you have military man.

No, sorry, I really meant that it was nice of you, unfortunely tones of voice don't come out when you type this stuff. It would have been so much better for my oldest daughter had her dad did the same, it torchered her when he couldn't see her more than once ever year or 2 due to his circumstances. I am sorry you took that wrong, and my ;( was because I am sad for you.

From the question you asked...it sounds like you only want to give her up so that you don't have to pay child support. That is ridiculous, go get a job give her to her father and help support your child you created. She is 15 and you decide now this is what you want to do. You should have did that when she was born. You brought her into this world she didn't ask to be here...Take Care of Your Daughter!!!

I'm afraid I have to agree with the majority...I have seen TOO many questions on here from parents wanting to know how to severe there parental rights and the next question is if they still have to pay child support!! What does that say to these children that their parents don't want them just because they have to pay to help support them.... how sad that it comes to this that someone would rather give their children away than pay child support..... :(

I believe under certian situations this could be the best and only way to go.The other parent sometimes makes living every day life unbearble by telling the children grown up things.In turn the children learn to hate the noncustiodal parent.Usually the hardest working montary provider spends less time with the children, so they must noy love them as much. What a joke.

Dkguy04, I can't believe you. First you state a question and someone answers it, not to your liking and you jump back with "You have no right to judge me. Judge not lest ye be judged. You do not know anything about circumstances. You do not know me, my child.... Unless you walk a mile in my shoes. Ever heard of sacrificing one for the good of the others...." You are right, we don't know your life, just as you don't know ours, but lets get real here. NO MATTER WHAT, YOU DON'T SIGN OFF YOUR RIGHTS TO YOUR CHILD....EVER! Here is a saying for you, " when the going gets tough, the tough get going". You are trying to take the easy way out, no matter if child support is involved or not. Just because things may be going wrong or things seem to be out of control, nothing can be so bad that you could just say, "well, let me give up my child of 15 years and go on with life as if nothing has ever happened". I'm sorry, but there is NO reason for this. My husband and I have 7 children all together (I had 4 he had 2 and we have 1 together) and let me tell you, we have seen it, done it and been through it all. We spent day after day week after week month after month and year after year in the court system with our ex's, they took us back for every single thing, I would get dragged to court one time then my husband would get dragged to court (our ex's were friends and they would talk with each other and then each one of them would drag us to court for anything and everything they could). I will be 43 years old this Friday and my husband and I are living day to day, paycheck to paycheck, we have been to hell and back, kids that tried to get into drugs and even been through the whole cutting issue and things have been down right rotten here at times with the ex's saying things to the children about money and questioned everything we bought and kids being rotten to the core and calling us every name in the book, but not once have we said get rid of them just sign them off and forget about it. Our children are now 23, 21, 19, 18 1/2, 16 1/2, 16 and 4 years old. Through all the bad times we have hung in there and it has not only made my husband and I stronger, but it has made our children realize what life is all about. It's not money and who can buy more things or a bigger house, car, etc... It's how much love you have and are willing to give and receive. Grow up and deal with whatever is going on in your life and step up to the plate and be a parent. You did the job, now take care of what you made. That child is 15 years old and is at a very insecure time in their life, to drop that child would destroy her! By the way I am not sorry for the contents of this answer, they are my thoughts and since you asked the question, I have every right to write them down.

Nope, you can't easily do this. the only way to do it is if the other parent agrees to it, or, has them remarried then as a couple adopt your daughter.

otherwise, you should still pay child support since it is your child and you have a right to a duty to help raise her and be a part of her life.

Every state is different on the law on signing off your rights,Kansas is a state that does allow you to sign your rights away,I was born and raised in Kansas. Your daughter is 15 and she knows you so even if you sign your rights away your daughter will always know you and be able to come to you. I am sure you have your reasons for wanting this.and it is not up to anyone to judge you. I am sure both you and your daughter know whats going on,so do what is right for you. You just need to get a hold of an attorney or you can call legal aide and see if you qualifly for free legal service.
