Adoption
My 11 year old son has never been legitimated by his birth father, nor is his birth father's name on the birth certificate. The father and I were never married and we never lived together. My son has not seen his birth father in over two years. I have been married to another man for the last three years and we have another child together. My husband wishes to adopt my son. Is there a way for him to adopt my son without involving the birth father? We are sure that if he is contacted, the birth father will contest. Currently he does not know where we live, and I would like to keep it that way. My son has special needs that his birth father does not understand and his birth father has been a very negative influence with pornography and other things that have given my son continuous nightmares. My son does not want to see him and says he wants my husband to be his ''only daddy''. How can I spare my son the mess of a contested adoption but make sure that his birth father cannot try to take him, especially if something were to happen to me? Thank you.
Re: Adoption
The birth father MUST be involved. There is no way around that. His rights have to be terminated to proceed. Call me if we can assist you with an adoption.
