Unless the kid is, like, 10 months old, the biodad has abandoned the child. If his parental rights haven't already been severed, they should be, and that should open the door to your adopting the kid. Good luck. * The biological mother will have to file a petition in the state court in the city or county where she resides to have the father's parental rights terminated before the child is eligible for adoption. In such cases the court is generally agreeable, but such cases are judged on their individual merit. In most situations the petitioner will need to show the court that reasonable attempts to locate the biological parent have been made to obtain his or her consent for the adoption. Abandonment laws in most states do not address the issue of the adoption of a child based only on the issue of one or both parents not being present.

What should you do if your boyfriend has a child who does not like you?
Most children don't like the new woman in their fathers life because they are desperately hoping their mother and father will get back together again or, they don't want any other woman replacing their biological mother. It takes time and it is also time that the father had a talk to his child (if old enough) and explain his feelings about you to the child. Slowly the two of you could spend some quality time together with the child by doing things together and hugging and kissing should not be around the child for several months and only in private. Talk to your boyfriend about being more proactive in his childs life and explain what is going on.
