Adopt step child
I want to adopt my 16 year old step daughter, with out a lawyer. Money is very tight. Her Dad has full custody of her, and her Biol Mom was only given a week visitation per year. Well my step daughter has not seen or heard from her Biol Mom in about 4 years, and the Mom has never paid child support or any thing.
My step daughter wants me to adopt her, her Dad and I are soon to Divorce, and she wants nothing to do with him. She wants to live with me and her half brothers. My husband, her Dad, is emotionally abusive, and is an alcholic. I just want to protect her, I have been in her life since she was 5. She calls me Mom, and I treat her as if she were my own. I have been her Mom, now I NEED to make it legal.
Need Help.
