What is the name of your state? IL
My stepdaughter's mom was killed in a car accident several years ago. My husband has custody, and the girl lives with us. Would it be wise for me to adopt her? Is it "simple" because there is no other parent involved? Would we have to notify the ex's family, since we can't notify her? I ask the questions because most of the stepparent adoption discussions on here involve a surviving parent. Since we don't have that, what do we need to do?
