There is the issue of whether you even want to let her relinquish to you or instead force her to go through with the state's planned TPR. I would recommend you not get in the way of the TPR action. Private (family) arrangements, even those that are confirmed by a court, are more difficult to enforce and may be easier to overturn. If the state follows through with the TPR, everything will be well-documented, on-the-record and bmom's every right to see or speak to your child will be terminated by law. The court may also issue a restraining order that prevents her from attempting to contact your son or disturbing your family in any way.
After you adopt, you and your husband will be the only judge of who can see your child and under what circumstances. And that's the way it should be, I think.
I hope that all of you will have the future that you truly deserve. Good luck, Kate'sMom.
