I have 3 children from a previous marriage that wish to be adopted by their step-dad. The biological father is willing to give consent. as a matter of fact, he wants nothing to do with the three kids. Does anyone know where I can obtain the paperwork for step-parent adoption? We don't have the money to pay a lawyer, and would like to do the adoption by ourselves. My 3 children adore their step-dad, and have already had a legal last name change done, at their request. So, they have their step-dad's last name, but want the whole package. I have talked to the local court, they won't give out information on what forms I need. I have called printing companies that sell legal documents, none have step-parent adoption kits or forms. I am beating my head into a brick wall here, and have three kids that really want to be adopted. So much, in fact, they wrote a poem asking their step-dad to adopt them and gave him it on fathers day. HELP PLEASE!!

Any help would be appreciated!
