What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Oklahoma.
I'm not sure how these things work as I am a first time user of this board but I have a question that I can't seem to find an answer to on the web. My fiance and I have been together for two years now. We would like to get married soon(even though it is not legal in OK) and we were thinking about starting a family. My fiance wants to carry the baby, and choose a sperm donor that looks like me. Here's the thing; what happens if something were to happen to her? Being that the baby would biologically be from her, what's to keep her parents from taking our child from me? Her parents disprove of our relationship and that would be the first thing they did should something ever happen to her. I don't know what to do...does adoption work that way? Maybe some law that would allow me to legally adopt the baby so as to keep it in the even something ever happens? If someone knows an answer it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
