Legal Question in Family Law in Iowa

My son never married his daughters mother first of all. She is now almost 7 yrs old & the mother is something else (that is all I will say). She has texted my son asking him to give up his rights to the daughter because her new man that she is engaged to wants to adopt her.

We live in Iowa. If he so chooses to do so is his obligation for child support stopped?

As I told the mom I don't understand how you can allow a little girl to dictate something so serious however she claims its the daughters idea as she is taking foster parent classes so the little girl has a ton of quesitons.
