I gave birth to twins that are 6yrs old now(boy/girl). I have always kept a good relationship with them they send pictures and I talk to my son. This my situation I gave my son up for adoption but kept my daughter after about 2 months I decided I had made the wrong decision and hired an attorney to get him back but I felt as though my attorney didn't represent me to the fullest extent of the law. Here is the twist though I was still married to my husband at the the time and my husband signed adoption papers without my knowledge even thought he and I both knew that these babies were not his. My boyfriend of 2yrs at the time signed both birth certificates and they also carry his last name. My husband filed for divorce and we got divorced couple of months later. A DNA test was performed on the baby that we kept in because those were the instructions give to us by the original lawyer. The biological father never signed any papers for the adoption. What should be the next course of action? I just came back from visiting him and it was so heart breaking to see him cry.

It seems like alot of people involved have committed fraud, including you. I really don't think that anyone on a web forum can really help you, you need to consult with a couple of attorneys to find out what your best course of action should be.

I have kept in contact with the family but visiting him his hard. I am not ripping him from the family he knows...He also knows that I am his mother and he has a father as well that loves him. He cried when I left him on Monday and that was hard seeing him cry and his twin sister because she didn't understand why we had to leve him. I have tried once to get him back I just didn't feel that my attorney represented me to the fullest extent of the law. I have thought about it for 6yrs and I feel like it is time for him to come home to his real family.

you get to think about it for 6 years??????? I don't think so. You gave the child up to a family that has raised him for 6 years and now you want to take THEIR child away? If I were them I would be fixing it where you could never have any contact again.

In most states, a child is LEGALLY the child of the husband unless the person who believes himself to be the father (your boyfriend) goes to court and challenges that. So, your husband was legally allowed to give up HIS LEGAL child for adoption.

And how exactly did your husband sign the papers without your knowledge? Both parents signatures are required for an adoption. How did you not know it when it happened?

Honestly, your situation does not make sense. There is a LOT you are leaving out, and no one can give you proper advice without all the facts. You will need an attorney.

She knew all about it...But since she has changed her mind, and wants to rip this boy who is NOT her son, away from HIS FAMILY she is willing to make up stories to see if it will "fly"...

And, she blames her huband when she didn't know how to keep her legs closed. I can't imagine her son hating to see her leave. She gave him UP, for crying out loud. And chose to keep his sister. I can't imagine that he doesn't need counseling.


And, don't get me wrong. Adoption is a great thing.

I know just what you are saying! I thought the same thing when I first saw this thread...I can understand that she was in a situation and needed to place him for adoption,but to visit and remind this poor boy that when there was a choice... she didn't choose him!!

And, that her husband is at fault for her skanky ways. Amazing.

And when she visits, he sees her take his sister over him STILL. I agree. If I were this boy's family, I would immediately stop ALL contact with the "mother".

Added to that, not only is she destroying this little boy, she feels no remorse for dragging her daughter along with her.
