Re: fathers rights
Support and visitation are two completely different issues. Your child still needs to eat even if the mother is being unreasonable. Father's are expected in IL to pay support, even if they do not see the child. Fathers in that situation then go to court to force visitation, and the court will make sure they get it (unless there are safety issues).
If you want to see your child contact our firm and I can help. If you want to stop paying for a child you brought into this world, I cannot help you.
Re: fathers rights
If this is regarding Indiana law, waiving your rights does not relieve you from having to pay child support.
If you want to see your kids, you need to file for contempt agasint your ex wife.
