There is no legal way for a person to sign over their rights absent an adoption. Some one created this fantasy and it lingers. And you really do not have the right to take away a father if the father chooses to try to declared that status. He is not automatically entitled to visitation with the child, especially if he has not played any role in the child's life for many years. He is entitled to pay child support however.
