This means you are giving up ALL LEGAL RIGHTS to a child that you have conceived. Once the legal papers are signed, you not longer are the legal father or mother to that child. You will never have any legal rights to the childs, live what so ever. You can not go for visitation, custody, have any say in any health, school, etc...etc. It's like you have now given the child up for adoption kinda thing. However, this does NOT MEAN that child can't contact you or have a relationship with you if it so chooses once legal age of adulthood. It's still your child, it's only a piece of paper. I know this personally as my spouse has done this with a former marriage. Option to sign over all custodial rights in leu of having to pay support and second husband adopt the child. Excepted only because family moved 8 hours away and would have no contact with the child anyway. She has since contacted us once she became a legal adult! Doesn't change blood, only on paper!
You have no legal right to see him but you can ask the custodial parent nicely and hope for the best.
Yes, any biological parent who has not had their parental rights terminated by the court can file a lawsuit (petition) for custodial rights to their minor child.
"custodial" ... "their" ... In general, parental rights are terminated either preparatory to an adoption, or after a trial in which it is determined that the parent is unfit. In any case, termination of parental rights does not, in itself, terminate child support.
Unless visitation rights for the non-custodial parent were allowed in the divorce paperwork, the custodial parent is completely within their rights to deny the non-custodial parent visitation....however, the non-custodial parent may sue for visitation rights.
If the court has awarded you visitation rights, then you have those rights legally and they cannot be denied by the custodial parent.

File an order to show cause for full custody. At the same time, prepare pleadings to request the absent parent's (incarcerated for murder) parental rights be terminated. I've seen it happen, I've prepared the documents, so you CAN get his rights terminated. Generally, it is those types of parents whose rights are, and should be terminated. Have a paralegal, or Legal Document Assistant do the work for you if cost is an issue. They are not difficult to do. Best wishes! PF
No. Rights are terminated voluntarily (typically, preparatory to an adoption) or by the court following a verdict that the parent is unfit. Also, custody should be confirmed by court order.
Parental rights are paramount to "grandparents rights". In most jurisdictions there are no such rights.
No. Custodial or visitations issues and child support are completely different matters. Parental rights can only be relinquished voluntarily by the parent or permanently terminated by the court.

He may have his visitation modified or rights to visitation terminated by the courts if his absence becomes chronic and the custodial parent files a motion for such based on the same. Also, child support may be increased in favor of the custodial parent due to increased parenting time.
