Unless you have been court appointed as their 'guardian' your ADULT children ARE emancipated once they pass their 18th birthday (in MOST states). If they are still living at home and you wish them to leave, you must evict them under the laws of your particular state.

Since the marriage is between you and the parent of your stepchildren, there is no marriage between you and the children, so there can be no divorce from them. You can divorce their parent though, and after the divorce you don't have to have any further contact with them if you don't want to since you are no longer related to them.

No. A divorce is a legal dissolution of a legal marriage. You are not legally married to your children.
