More details to this question:
I have had multiple cases opened with DCF (child services in Florida). The allegations have always called from the same person. This tile they actually took my children, went through dependency court and they are in the care of the person who’s made all of these attempts. Can I just tell the judge that I feel unfit to care for them and sign my rights away to that person. If so, will I still be financially responsible?

You would have to contact the caseworker to request a vountary termination of rights. They prepare the paperwork for that, if they approve it. They ordinarily approve it so long as there are responsible parties remaining, in this case the person(s) who made the complaints and has the children currently.
