What is the name of your state? Texas
My stepchildren want to be adopted be me. The biological father( 38 yrs. old ) is the non-custodial parent. He pays his court ordered child support when he works, which is not often, lives with his mother and they live with grandma. He is very vocal about "his chidren" at times. He is of low moral character with other illegitimate children. My stepchildren, twins 14 and one 11 years old would like to have their last name change to that of mine. Does the bio-father have to give up his parental rights or can the children initial something for either name change or adoption to take place?
