    Default Marrying Somebody You Adopted As A Child

    I don't know of anyone, including myself, who is involved in these things, so these are just out of curiosity. I am mainly interested in how Florida and New York regard these laws, if there are no federal ones.

    1. Is it legal for an adult to receive money from a minor?
    2. Is it legal to adopt a minor and to marry that said person when he or she is an adult?

    1. Maybe. What are the facts?

    2. I am not aware of any jurisdiction where you can marry your own child.

    It's against the law to marry your child. Why would you be curious about such a thing??

    It seems to me that this may be more than just curiosity.

    Minors can give presents to adults. Whether what you have in mind is legal or not (in terms of "gifts")? I have no way of knowing.
