Very interested in the final outcome. We have a similiar situation on the horizon. Baby has been with us since 5 days, she is 15 mos now....BioFather's sister has told me she wants to adopt if dad's rights terminate. She, as well as us, are confused why baby was not placed with her in first place. Not sure if it was a question of paternity or not. Frustrating---she is nice, but why is she waiting so long to take steps? Not to mention, as I've said in other posts...I really would like to know what is in the best interest of the child---does research prove that bio ties outweigh the early bonding that has happened in cases like these?

If anyone has info on that please pass it along. Thanks!
