Can the child of a prisoner who is in foster care be adopted?
Jgreenwood37
It may have EVERYTHING to do with the laws of your particular state - but usually unless the legal parent/guardian of the child surrenders any claim, they remain, legally, the child of that parent.
Your question would best be directed at a the Family Court of your particular jurisdiction or to an attorney who specifically practices in the area of 'family law.'
