Then please learn how to use the quote feature, as placing them in the title makes it appear that you typed them. That may be part of why people are having trouble understanding what you post.bobbiebeamer said:Those quotes are not what I wrote. Someone wrote that to me.
That is who wrote that..............Mbarr said:Another alternative, if stepdad is against adoption, would be to file a consent petition for stepdad to be joint custodian with mom.
The fact that he is financially responsible for 4 children already may be why it was inferred from your post that this may be the case.bobbiebeamer said:My husband has 4 kids from a previous marriage which he adopted one and the youngest was the result of an affair and isn't his however he pays for all of them. If he adopts my kids does domestic relations look at that as a responsability that he must support as well. He has done this before and as soon as the adoption was legal after years she kicked him out and filed for divorce. So he know must pay for her.
Please advise
Bobbiebeamer, I thought you were implying that your husband does not want to adopt because of his prior bad experience. I apologize for any confusion my post has caused.bobbiebeamer said:Does my husband have to adopt my kids to have any kind of rights to them.

Not in AL. And if the stepparent has been in the home with the child for over 1 year, the Court generally waives the requirement for a home investigation.nextwife said:The fact that he is financially responsible for 4 children already may be why it was inferred from your post that this may be the case.
As an adoptive parent, I'm curious if the financially capablity to adopt is looked at for stepparents the way it is for the rest of us adoptive parents. We had to provide a financial statement, assets & debts list, proof of continued employment, etc. and SHOW on paper that we were financially capable of assuming responsibilty for just the ONE child.
