Divorce Support Forums: Termination of Parental Rights

It's been quite some time since I last posted here and in that time a lot of drama has gone on.

My ex husband requested not one, but two paternity tests on my 5 year old twin girls. The tests proved (as I knew they would)
that he was indeed their father.

It's been about 5 months since the tests and after all this he up and decides he wants to sign over his parental rights...which I think is absolutely cruel to do to a child once they have been around you and are of an age older than an infant and will know that all of the sudden you are not around them any more.

I have no problem with him signing over his rights...I can't stand the man.

In addition to this his entire family is now denying knowing me, and any relation to the girls.

In addition to this I am currently in the process of ANOTHER divorce from my current husband (its a long story and its a shame but he has been very dishonest with me for a long time to the point that it destroyed our relationship).

I guess I'm just seeking out some kind of opinion on what to do.

How do I explain to my girls (or should I even explain) that they aren't going to see daddy at all and they wont be seeing very much of their other daddy aside from when he comes to pick up their brother.

All I want for my children is stability but it seems like as soon as life settles down their little world is shaken up again.
