Overseas, I know with single parent families one parent can 'adopt' the child from the other parent so that all legal rights are given up and that person no longer has to pay child support. I don't want money from my ex partner, and he doesn't want to pay it nor does he want to see the child, so it would be best for us both if he gave up his rights then no longer paid child support. Do we have a system like that here?
