Can I terminate my ex-husband’s parental rights?

My ex-husband and I have been divorced about 1 1/2 years. At first he kept up his visitation though he has never helped me out financially. In my paperwork it states he is supposed to see the kids every other weekend and holidays in even years as well as summer. In the 2 years we have been divorced, his visits slowly started to wain. It started off well then it was once a month then maybe once every 2 months and as of now he has not had any contact with my children in almost 7 months. I actually have no idea where he is. Is this grounds for termination of his rights?
