BMen’s rights activists usually hate to see women getting any kind of compensation or support from the male family member after separation.
But I am here to ask today how do I get myself to opt out of my father’s pension?
He was an extremely abusive man who ruined my mother’s life and ruined most of mine as well. He liked to lie to everyone about us how we (Mom and I) are trying to steal his money and property. I am 24F working hard on my own career and I have done everything after graduation to be financially independent. I have been working full time since the last two years. Right now my father is really sick and he has been living with my uncle’s family (father’s sibling). He used to be a professor and receives pension. He is extremely mentally ill and a compulsive liar other and somehow has also lied about uncle trying to steal from him too to his colleagues. Every year we are supposed to submit a life certificate and that requires the signature of the HOD of his department. This year my cousin had went to talk to the HOD and he started hurling abuses at him saying that he has heard that they have taken everything from my father and that he refuses to sign anything without talking to my father. My father has Parkinson’s and suffers from bipolar disorder and MDD. He doesn’t socialize with anyone anymore, refuses to talk to anybody and on top of that he has also become very physically ill as well. Uncle and his family is trying their best to look after him since I live alone and my parents have separated long ago. I work full time and it is difficult for me to look after him at this point. I want to completely opt out of my father’s assets or pension after his death since I want to be completely independent and I’m confident that I would not need his pension. He can have all of it and take the rest to his grave. I am tired of being harassed and questioned by his colleagues. I frankly want nothing to do with his property or money and would love to just cut all ties at this point.

CTechnically, there is no provision for you to disown your father (as I can gather from your post), but your uncle can opt to become his guardian cutting the mental illness and that he is the caretaker (he will require a no objection from your mother and possibly you).
That would give much more freedom to him to manage your father’s estate, and in turn free you up as well. -
