It is an interesting question, as to whether the father should still be obligated to make support payments even after his parental rights are terminated. In the U.S., this is not the case. It seems odd to still demand financial obligations from a parent, yet strip all of their rights to the child. Of course, no child should suffer due to a deadbeat or loser parent. Yet I think the state/government picks up the slack with subsidies and other welfare type benefits for the child/family.
