    Want to have Father's rights terminated

    IMHO, this is a good idea. I do know that in order for his right to be terminated, he has to have had no contact with your daughter, and no child support for AT LEAST 6 months. Check your state, in Texas it is a year with no contact and no support. I totally understand your situation. My ex...

    Why is child support around???

    Whether you had a relationship with her or not, if the child is yours (DNA proof), you have to pay child support if the child does not live with you. My question is, did you rape her???? Your biggest concern should be going to jail for rape!!!! :rolleyes:

    I'm on LTD and they want me to pay them back.

    LTD usually only last 2 years, sometimes less depending on the contract. SSDI will last until you are 65 if you can manage to qualify. To qualify for SSDI, you can not be able to work at any job, not just the work you are qualified for. Good luck SSDI is extremely difficult to qualify for.
