Step parent adoption in TX ? Newbie with ?s
I had my 14 yr old son when i was 16 . His BF bolted when i told him i was pregnant. Did not sign the Birth certificate, never saw him , never paid child support (nor did i ever file on him) My son's BF died about 6 1/2 yrs ago , right before I married. I have been married for 6 yrs and now have a 5 yr old son (from my husband lol) . My husband has been wanting to adopt my oldest son basically since day one . But we always thought it was too expensive and would be too complicated with his BF being dead . We were also afraid that the BF's parents might surface and try to get visitiation or something ? After finding this site by accident, I might just have some hope after reading some of the emails. Would it be more difficult to do a step parent adoption since his BF is deceased or maybe easier than I thought ? how much does it cost . I guess Where do i start ?
Thanks for your help
