Can my stepdad adopt me without my dads permission?
The age varies by state. Fourteen is the most common consent age, but many states require youth as young as ten to consent to adoption. Many parents have told us that adopting a teen has the added reward of knowing that not only did you choose them to be their child, they chose you to be their parents.

What are the adoption requirements in Mississippi?
In the US, if the father is not on the birth certificate, but you know who he is, your adoption social worker can help you contact him. He will need to take a paternity test to be sure he is the father, and then can either sign relinquishment papers or seek custody of the child, if he is the Dad.
