Step Father Wanting To Adopt
Maybe someone on here can help. I live in florida and have been married since october. My wife became pregnant in the state of texas. when she was 8 months pregnant she moved to florida with her family. The only contact she has had with the bio father was when my step daughter was 2 months old and that was over the phone. During this conversation the bio stated he didnt think the baby was even his and wanted to be left alone. He has not contributed one penny to my wonderful stepdaughter. I have been taking care of her since she was a year old. Being raised by a single mom, and later having a step parent and siblings, i know how difficult it was to have a different name. I would like to adopt my step daughter not only because i love her but so she doesnt have to deal with the same things i had to. Where do we start?
Nothing seems to fit our need. Any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks!
