Anyway, I want to ask for some advice from you guys if you would know anything about my problem.
I have a 7 year old son back home in the Philippines and I'd like to get him...the thing is, he's my brother in legal papers. My parents decided to put him in their name for some purposeful reasons when I had him and now it's a problem for me to get him. What am I supposed to do? Is adoption an option? Me and my husband will adopt him as our own?
Thanks :-)
In your case , Adoption of a ''relative'' child is not possible as you need to prove the four degrees of consanguinity.
