Related child Explanation: Adopted vs. step I have a daughter who is really my husbands daughter from his previous marriage. She is my step-daughter , she is affiliated ,she is "related" to me( in insurance and legal terms) as she is part of my household, but she is not my adoptive daughter. In order to adopt a child, one needs to have the biological parent renounce his/her rights to said child in a Court of Law proceeding. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs (2007-05-08 20:32:20 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- ok let's cut the chase Adopt = legal guardianship is assumed for life Foster = temporary Custody/guardianship until child is placed in an "adoptive" home Relation= child who can be claimed as a "dependent" in someone's income taxes, for whom over 50% of room and board is provided by the taxpayer, who lives in the household for more than 6 months a year. A related child can then be, as you see either of the above - fostered, adopted or as, in my case, a stepchild. Again., for insurance purposes and I am stricktly talking about the US here, a "related" child is as explained above. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs (2007-05-08 20:35:46 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Just one more thing, more text always always helps I know that you are relatively new to PROZ; everyone here really wants to help but in order to give you the best possible answer we must have enough context to go on. I hope that one of the three situations explained above fits your context best. Ciao! |
