Legal Question in Family Law in Minnesota

Can I get my sons father to give up his parental rights? He hasn't spoken to me since I got pregnant, wasn't there for the birth and hasn't met his son. He is now 5 months old. I'm scared one day he will file for custody. They are trying to serve him now with child support papers.
