An annulment dissolves the marriage as though it had never taken place. If two unmarried people have a child one does not need to adopt the child to be its legal parent. If it was your marriage and is your child the annulment doesn't affect your position as the child's parent. An adoption isn't necessary. You should consult with an attorney. On the other hand, if you wish to adopt a child from your present spouse's annulled marriage to another person then the child's other parent must consent to the adoption.
