It seems like the main reason for step parent adoption is to alienate one parent. Usually the child is already cared for and nothing changes, other then the exchanging of parental rights.
Of the cases I know, fathers adopt their new spouses child(ren) to pass as his own and save her reputation or so they can force the other father out of the child life. I don’t think I’ve known personally of a case where it was done for the sake of the child.
My feelings are still unclear on this topic.
What do you think?

Im hopefully adopting 2 bunnies from
a shelter this weekend.I was just curious what
are some questions asked on a adoption form
and how long the whole adoption process can take.
Will most shelters allow you to interact with the
pets before you take them home?
