Reliable adoption information
My biological father has contacted me.. (This isn't an adoption or first time meeting, please read!)?
I'm making this as short as possible....My biological father and my mom were married until i was about 8 years old. He was very abusive and on drugs and all around a shitty father person. Not going into detail When they got divorced the courts seized all custody and for awhile we had to go see him at Branches, a domestic violence shelter, under supervised visitation. He didn't show up to a lot of those and when he did it was to show his ass or something. Branches testified in court saying it would be of our best interest not to see him. So, his custody was completely taken away and restraining orders were put against him. Since then he hasn't tried to contact us except for 1 time totaling my dads car the man i consider to be my REAL father and showing up at my grandpa's house in a violent rage going to kill him.... It's been...about 8 years since I last saw or heard from him. The courts said in order for him to ever ha ve a snowballs chance in hell at seeing us again, he would have to go to multiple rehabs, and angermanagement classes and all kinds of parenting classes and what not. basically would have to jump through hoops. Well, apparetnly he never did and he never cared enough to try to or even try and contact us again. His mother, technically my grandmother , has tried contacting us constantly so she could see us, but it was too much of risk since my bio fath was always at her house so we've ignored her attempts. Well, I had to create a facebook page for a honor society at my university, I just have my school information on it. Well, I got a message and friend request from him on his step daughters page saying " hey its ur father inserthisname here i really love and miss u and mysistersname please get ahold of me i would love to hear from u please call me my number is xxxxxxxxxx " This message shocked me. I'm so upset now because of all these pent up emotions and I don't even know what to ask anymore. Any advice would be great or thought input. Thanks.

My step-mother is trying to ruin my chances of adoption?
I am 24 years old and my mum died when I was 10 and I had to go to live with my dad after that. After about a year of living with him he met and married this woman who is quiet horrible and rude. We always fought so my dad allowed me to move in with my grandparents and I lived with them until they died. When I would visit my dad she would always make comments about me being a spoiled little rich girl. I lived on a ranch but it was in a lot of debt. She and my dad would not buy me Christmas or Birthday presents because I had so much. They had a daughter when I was 15 and spoil her to the extent that she has mocked teachers for not being rich or expecting them to let her away with everything and anything. I was raised to work hard for everything good in life and that nothing comes easy.My granddad died when I was 16 and my grandmother when I was 17 and when I was 18 I inherited the ranch off them which is roughly 650 acres and I started to rebuild it and worked my butt of to make it successful again but it has been worth it. As I was working hard my step mother would always try to get money out of me and would not be happy if I did not spoil my sister I would buy her small presents just not expensive ones but I needed all the money to make the ranch work again. It took two years to have everything up and running somewhat smoothly and then I had the house knocked and rebuilt because it was falling down. My step mother has never liked the fact I have more than them and we still constantly fight over things and she is very ungrateful for all that I have done for them. I helped them when her parents were sick by looking after my sister for a couple of months and I have helped them out financially when they were in dept. I only do it because my dad and my sister are the only close family I have left but neither of them are very grateful either. Last year I started thinking about adopting a child as I have always wanted children and I am financially and emotionally ready and I love the thought of adopting a child who needs a home.I started looking in to it and my step mother has not been happy the whole way through it. I got a call last week to say there was a woman who wanted to meet me. She is six months pregnant and is dying of cancer and wants me to adopt her son, she told me she only had a couple of months left and no family to look after the baby. I agreed to adopt the baby and she tanked me wholeheartedly and I started to prepare for the baby by doing up a nursery. My step mother has insulted the birth mother and has tried to ruin my adoption chances at every turn my dad says nothing when I talk to him. The birth mother was going to put the baby up for adoption even if she was not dying.I am very annoyed and need advice on how to deal with my step mother and dad. I want to adopt again in the future and its hard enough this time what would it be like again with these people. I am single but I have a lot of love to give so please don't judge me. Help She is not happy about me adopting because it will mean I wont be giving them money and my sister wont get spoiled by me with the baby. My dad is not happy that his first grandchild will not be blood.My social worker and lawyer know everything they have said the adoption will go ahead I am just afraid the birth mother will back out. I already have so much love for my unborn son its not fair that I am the only one even my sister is not excited.
US stepparent adoption?
Many two parent homes have the issue of raising a step child with no clear rights shared by one parent and all the legal rights are based with the other. The third parent is absent and has often abandoned the child, leaving a step parent with no rights and a natural parent that has disappeared. The child grows in your heart and in your home. Now you want to make the child legally yours with a US stepparent adoption. How can a step parent make that happen without paying thousands of dollars in legal fees? This is money that you would prefer to save for giving the child a more comfortable life?
If a father signs over his rights, but the adoption never takes place, is he still responsible?
My husband signed over his rights to his son, and another man was set to adopt him. Apparently the other man did not do so and is no longer with the mother. Now 3 years later we are being taken to court for child support. Was his giving up his rights contingent on the adoption taking place? Can she win and be awarded child support for a child that we thought we had no rights to?Wanted to add that it is the child's mother, my husband's ex wife, that is taking us to court for child support. She tried starting drama with us and it didn't work because we ignored her, and now 3 weeks later we're getting a letter in the mail that she's asking for child support. We have the court doc's that show that my husband gave up his rights, but I'm not sure if they were ever filed with the court.

I'm worried about my sister (by adoption) to get hurt by her bf?
I'm 16 soon 17 and I have a sister by adoption , now she's 14 and she got her first bf. She never gets along with the family , it seems she have friends but I don't think she like them ,she cries quickly and get hurt quickly . We really don't talk to each other or have the same interests , but since she got a bf I feel worried that he'll hurt her or take advantage of her or make her cry . I ask her lots of questions about what they do together but she thinks that's her own privacy and I always tell " I'm ur brother of course I care about u " but she says " first of all ur not my brother ur my adoptive brother and second I don't want to tell u It's my like u know? " I'm really just worried cuz she's very innocent and cries quickly and teenage boys are immature and then she'll end up feeling bad. What should I do? What do u think??

I'm looking for a poem about birth sisters separated at birth by adoption but meeting and becoming friends?
I was adopted when I was born. I had an older birth sister that was kept by my birth mother. Recently I started contact with my birth family. My birth sister never even knew about me because my birth mom found it so difficult to tell her. I am looking for a poem to give my birth sister that will show her that I really hope we become friends one day. Any help would be great. I know it's a quite specific and unusual request.
Deadbeat dad, stepparent adoption?
I need some help. I live in Texas and I have a 2 year old daughter from an early marriage. I got married young, and he tells me he is gay and he moved out. I met a wonderful man with a daughter of his own who loves my child. My soon to be husband wants to adopt her, but her biological father wont sign his rights away. Problem is, he is not only a deadbeat, he is also dangerous. He was physically abusive to me while I was pregnant, and even tried to strangle me once when he was drunk. He does nothing but drink, and brings home strange men from the gay bar. He only ever wants to see her when he has a new " boyfriend" to show her off to but that is the only time. He wont sign his rights away just to be mean. Problem is, I have no proof to show that she is not safe around him. His apartment is filled with beer bottles and trash everywhere, and I picked her up once and there were drunk men there and she was alone in the living room sucking on a beer cap. How can I get this filth out of our lives? We can take him to court, but its only going to be me saying that he is bad, I have no proof. His parents hate him too and they are terrified of her going over there, but since he is their son, they are not willing to testify. They say they are just going to pray that she is safe when he takes her. As I said, he has only had her over to his place once, and only takes her out when he finds a new guy, but I hate to have to wait until something bad happens before I can take his rights away. My little girl is afraid and cries when he takes her, my fiance is the only father she knows and he has been there for her since she was a baby. Does anyone have any advice? My friend took custody after his ex let a guy babysit and he molested her, but do I really have to wait until she is hurt before i can do anything? Please help I should add that his reasons for not signing his rights away is that I hardly " know" this man who has been raising her, and she calls him daddy. But yet he regularly brings home strange men from the bar? She has already had 2 yeast infections and a kidney infection, which apparently is unusual for a baby, but the Doctor said there were no signs of abuse?
