Generally speaking, courts do not take termination of a parental right lightly.  Many states have statutes that specifically state what the reasons for termination are (conviction of a crime involving the well being of children, etc.) and the determination is always made with the best interests of the child in mind.  Also, if the parent pays support the court will not terminate just because they choose not to see the child. It is a sad situation but still a right to choose given the natural parent.  Good luck.
