Children are usually disowned by their parents after the child does something against the parents wishes. Whether the child was adopted has no affect on if the parents disown them or not.

Being adopted does not count against you when seeking out scholarships.
Can a parent disown a grown child without the child being notified?
No, they have to be told.

A legally adopted child will be treated as any other minor. Their adopted parents have the same rights and responsibilities as a biological parent. So, the answer is probably 18.
Why did I have to disown my son to eliminate him from my will but I didn't have to disown my mother when I took her out of my will?
Your mother is not considered a natural heir, as you are expected to outlive her. And there is no need to 'disown' a child, you simply have to name them and say they don't get anything.
Can an adapted child be disowned?
Yes, but that would be very mean to adopt a child then disown them.
Can a parent disown an adult child?
Yes. That is typically accomplished by disinheriting that child in your Will.
Can a child choose to live with their real parent after being adopted in Georgia?
Not until the child has reached adult age. In order for the child to be adopted the parent had to give up parental rights so they no longer have rights to the child.
Does Colorado allow you to disown an adult child in your will?
Yes. You just have to write in your will that your adult child gets NOTHING.
If a child is adopted away from their biological parents at what age can they choose to go back?
The child cannot choose to return until she has reached eighteen years of age.
What states allow the disowning of an adopted child?
It depends on the age of the child, and other than that believe this would be handled on a case by case situation. When my husband adopted my daughter, the judge made it very clear she was now his child in every way, til death do they part. So from that I will say, an adopted or natural child makes no difference in the eyes of the law (In CA at least).The following came from an attorney in Ohio regarding a noncustodial father who wanted to disown his 14 daughter who was being somewhat of a handful;You are responsible, at a minimum, for your natural children until they reach the age of majority (18). Theoretically, he could voluntarily terminate his parental rights, but I doubt any court would accept such a surrender of rights because the purpose of termination is to protect children from unfit parents, not vice-versa. Once they reach adulthood you would be legally able to disinherit your adopted adult child the same way you would a biological adult child.
