[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Remember that adopted children still have birth parents, and having her stepdad adopt her does not change anything about who her father was at her birth. It simply gives her the gift of a (legal) living father.[/quote] Well....in many states, it will mean that her birth father is removed from her birth certificate and an amended one is issued. So it's like dead dad never existed. How many women here would be ok if their husband's new wife adopted their kids and struck them permanently from the record of your child's birth after you died? Yeah, didn't think so.[/quote] That's kind of how I'm feeling, like he never existed, she never got to know him, and he wanted so very much to be a dad and was a great one. There's also his family, I can't imagine this will go over well.[/quote]
