    My husband wants to adopt my daughter
    My daughter is now 7. She knows that my husband is not her biological father, but has never been in contact with her biological father at all. We have been together since she was 2 and she has always known my husband as Daddy. We live in Florida. I have no idea where the biological father is, nor do I have any of his personal information. There is no one listed as father on her birth certificate, but I don't know if that removes his rights or not. Please help!

    Thanks, Kathy.

    Mr. Knowitall
    If he has not been identified on the birth certificate and has not been legally determined to be her father, the biological father has no legal custody rights. But he still has a right to be notified of any step-parent adoption proceedings.
