The mother of my child had the damn nerve to call me today and tell me,...Oh, I was wondering if you would be willing to sign off rights to my daughter so I do not have to pay child support anymore. She said just think of all the money you will be saving if you didn't have to pay. I will still let you see her, it will just be open to whenever you called and wanted to see her.
What the hell is she thinkin?? :eek:
I said I will never do that, it's not about the money! She said well i didn't figure you would jump to it, but just something to keep in the back of your mind if you wanted to have the extra money!
Trying to be a sneaky little B****!!
What a selfish idiot!! She is not thinking about my daughter at all! It would be different if I was a loser of a father, maybe it would be ok to ask something like that, but I am a perfectly great and willing dad that pays his child support on time, and wants nothing but to be part of my childs life! She is trying to take that from me why?? I am clueless at this point! :confused:
I have an attorney, and am going for visitation in about 4 weeks in front of a judge. I will be telling the judge about this. Will this put a damper on her in court??

Is she remarried? If so, Sounds like to me she is trying to get her new husband to adopt and keep the child to herself and have you look like you don't care about the child to the court!!
I am not sure if it would do anything in court to tell them but if I were you I would keep a journal of every time you talk to her or anything that pertains to the child and the mother.
Good luck you seem to be a very caring father!!

I am very much so a caring father. No she is not re-married. She goes to church, and had this child out of wed lock. We were never married, just a short relationship. I think she is trying to get hooke up with someone out of her church, and is going to try and have them adopt if she does get married to him. Well its not gonna happen! She wants a fairy tale life, a real whole family! She thinks if i sign off rights and she gets married she will have that!

Alot of people believe that the answer is a "whole family" and to have the child call this person in their life who has no blood relation their mother or father as a fairy tale but she needs to wake up but fairy tales are not true. The truth is that she should be happy that her child has a father who cares for her as much as you. Alot of fathers would jump at the fact of giving up child support when in the end they regret it because then they have no rights when the rights are given up. Hang in there and don't give up, sounds like she is trying to "make a fairy tale family" and what she doesn't realize is that will only hurt the child in the end!!

The idea of (or "fairy tale") having a whole family is not a bad one. Yes it is important to have both parents involved, especially if the non-custodial parent wants to be involved! I think that it will not affect her negatively in court by brining this option up with you. It is good intentions to want a child to have a stable family without the choas that can come with visitation and fighting parents, etc. Not always the best interest, but certainly not a horrible suggestion. So while you are saying you are an involved father, don't let this worry you. Your situation could be a lot worse and she could be doing much worse things that wanting the "fairy tale" life for her and her child. It's a harmless suggestion unless she starts sabatoging your relationship with your daughter to coerce you into agreeing.
