No they do not. In a case like this I would contact the adoptive parents and ask if it was OK.
Adopted means that someone who didn't give birth to the child, or made the mother pregnant, has agreed to be a parent to the child for all legal purposes.
Maybe, it depends upon the amount rendered by the government agency and by the obligated parent versus the needs of the children. However, said parent must be the legal adopting parent of the child/children.
Step-parents have no "legal rights" regarding their step children unless they have been legally adopted.
Generally a legally adopted child is considered a legal heir. They would have a equal share of a deceased parent's estate who died intestate.
Yes, as long as they are no longer minors.
No. If the document calls for a parent or guardian it must be a parent or guardian. Unless the step parent has adopted the child or otherwise been awarded parental rights by the courts the legal parent must perform all legal functions
In the United States there is no limit on bearing children.
In most cases the children will stay with their mother even though the father has a legal deportation.
Nothing. Step-children and step-parents have no legal relationship.Another View: It is not disclosed whether the step-children were legally adopted by the parent, or not. If they were legally adopted, they would have as much (or as little) claim to the estate as a natural birth-child.If a will exists and you were not specifically provided for in the will, you have no claim on the estate.If the parent died intestate you must contact the Probate Court to protect any interest you believe you may have in the decedent's estate.Consult with an attorney over your particular circumstance.
There is physical (residential) custody and legal custody. If you share legal custody with the other parent of if they have visitation rights you cannot move the children without the non-custodial parent's consent and/or court approval.There is physical (residential) custody and legal custody.

They will receive a new birth certificate with the new parent's name in the place of the old. The new certificate becomes the legal one and the old certificate is not valid.
Unfortunately they don't, even when you are married. If the other parent has died, then you can apply to be guardian of the children, where you would then get rights. Or if the other parent couldn't look after then children, the same could happen.
