I would say it all comes down to opinion. I think legally they are because they are taking care of the child and are also married to the child's mother/father. The child may not like them and decide they are not their parent.

In FL does the non-custodial parent have to give consent for the step-father to adopt?

YES! You can not just decide that you want your child to have a new father. Adoption by a step parent is complicated. The paternal father must sign his rights over, through the court, first.If the paternal father is in the child's life, I highly doubt the rights will be signed over. It all must be done in court!
