Is this normal procedure/legal when a teenager is adopted because Children's services took them off the mom to take the mom and dad's name off the birth certificate and replace it with the adoptive parents names? Can it be changed back when he is 21?
Is this normal procedure/legal when a teenager is adopted because Children's services took them off the mom to take the mom and dad's name off the birth certificate and replace it with the adoptive parents names? Can it be changed back when he is 21?
The name should be able to be changed back when they are 18. That is when the child is an adult and could change their name to "Gummy Bear" if they wanted, why not back to birth name?
I want him to change his name back to his birth name but I want my name and my ex's back on it too. I don't know if what they did was even normal procedure. I know he can change HIS name back or to whatever, but I want to know if they even had a legal right to take my name off.
I was adopted, and at the time of adoption on the papers they did the same thing your talking about to my papers also because i have the papers now because both of my adoptive parents are deceased. I found my biological mother when i was 24 and had a relationship with her for 20 years before she passed also, during the time i spent with her we went to the Minnesota health dept. and got a copy of the original birth certificate with her name and my birth name both on it,so what I'm trying to say is i think there is always a original birth certificate filed at the state health dept. where the person is born , but the only way to get a copy of that is to be with the birth mother so she can sign a piece of paper saying its alright for the individual on it to get a copy of it. I hope this makes sense.
If you go to the health dept. the the individual you and he can get an original copy when you sign for it, other wise who ever tries to get one now it has there name on it and his adoptive parents name on it.
Thank you
I hope someday we can do this
I don't even care if he keeps the adoptive parents name and maybe adds his birth name too
but right now he is in Germany, I am in Pittsburgh and his birth certificate is in Harris County, Tx.
Thanks
Have faith and keep him in your heart i know its a very difficult thing for all people involved, it was a very rewarding experience for me and my mother i know she was very happy the day we got it together i could see it in her eyes and i also was very happy, i think the best part is i found out i had a sister through all of it and i always wanted a sister when i was younger but i grew up with a family of four boys which was alright too. i have a wonderful relationship with my sister as of this day and we share a lot of traits which is really neat since we didn't grow up together.
