Childs father filed to relinquish his rights

[jkennedy26]

In Texas, if a father reliquishes his rights as a father, is he still obligated to pay child support?

How does daddy dearest plan to do this?

Well he has a lawyer and seems to be winning. I just want to know if he is able to get out of paying child support by doing this?

not just like that.

why do you think he's winning?

A child exists in this world because he helped create him. He can't get out of his obligation to that child just because he doesn't want to pay.

Your question, however, is whether he can give up his rights. Yes, he can absolutely give up his parental rights. But not his parental obligation.

What do you mean by "he seems to be winning"?
