Yes, a petition to terminate parental rights can be filed, but it is a separate legal process from terminating guardianship. The requirements and procedures vary depending on your location.
Can you let me know which state you are in? This will help me provide more specific information.

Given that you are in Reno, Nevada, and the guardians and your child are in Las Cruces, New Mexico, here are some key points:
- Petitions to terminate parental rights are handled by family courts in New Mexico.
- You will likely need to file the petition in the county where the child resides (Doña Ana County).
To proceed further:
*. Do you have legal representation in New Mexico?
*. Are you aware of the specific grounds required for terminating parental rights in New Mexico?
These details will help provide more tailored information.

Since your case is being held in Washoe County, Nevada, but involves parties living in New Mexico, it might get a bit complex.
To understand better, could you clarify who "he" is and what his role or relationship is in this case? This will help provide more targeted information.

It's crucial to act quickly given your circumstances. Here are some points that may help:
- Ensure you file a motion to contest the termination of your parental rights in Washoe County.
- Collect any evidence that supports your capability and readiness to resume parental responsibilities.
