Title: Adopting a stepchild
Post by: cuphalffull on Feb 13, 2004, 04:45:22 AM
My first husband passed away 4 years ago...my children were 10 and 7...they are now 14 (15 in May) and 11 (12 in Aug). My new husband would like to be a father in every sense of the word including adoption. What is involved....will this affect my children's receiving social security benefits from their father's death? Any help appreciated.:-)

Hi`
  Not too many people stop by here. You should post this on one of the main message boards. I was trying to figure out which one. Perhaps the best advice you'll receive would be from Socrateaser.  Try that, and good luck!
