Question Adoption Vs Guardianship

We are trying to adopt my 8 year old brother-in-law. We have a temporary guardianship agreement that was signed by the childs parents be for the mother passed away, and the fathers parental rights have been terminated. Now we are trying to adopt, but the childs brother is opposed to the adoption and says that we can continue with the guardianship. Does anyone have any idea why he would want to do this? Legal reasons, as well as emotional. We have had this child for 2 years now.
