We are in process of my husband adopting my 7 yr old son.We go to trial next week for Termination of Rights for his birth father.He hasn't seen our son for almost 6 years,basically the entire time I have been with my husband.This is the father he has known and bonded with.The birth father has never contacted in any way the entire time, until I contacted him about consenting to the adoption.Now he's fight it.I have received little or no child support up until 2002 when he was charged and convicted with felony failure to pay child support.Now I get some-what regular child support payments due to a wage garnishment.Under Michigan Adoption Code,you have to requirements to meet to terminate parental rights:2 years or more of no contact and 2 years or more of non-substantial support.Please tell me that just because of his being forced to pay due to the felony that it's not enough to stop this adoption from happening!!My son is counting the days until we see the judge.He has no idea everything else that's going on.He's been in therapy for the last 2 years trying to understand why his birth father didn't want to see him.He's bonded with my husband and often calls him dad.He says that he wants to make sure that the judge says it's ok before he refers to my husband as dad all the time.I've petitioned senators and house reps. to review the adoption code in our state because due to the new child support enforcement laws in place, we would never have the requirement for failing to pay child support met.I've even written the governor.Does anyone have any words of advise?
