Sorry FYI, we live in the state of Georgia.

My biggest concern is the name change, my stepdaughter is really having an identity issue with her having a different the last name of a man that does not want anything to do with her. She is also having some severe emotional problems at school.

Question: Is there any way to get their name changed without the NCP signing over his parental rights?

NCF has not had any contact with children in over 10 years. He owes over $30.000 in back child support. I am the stepfather and the kids want to change their names to mine. NCF is paying support through garnishment and the only way for the kids to change their name is for him to give up parential rights.

QUESTION: If he signs off on his parential rights can he still be made to pay the back child support?

Thanks
