A friend of mine was the lawyer for a groundbreaking case in Florida where a man was able to rescind his adoption decades after the fact by proving fraud and severe abuse.<br /><br /> An adoptive parent cannot unadopt and adult adoptee, so I'm not sure how an adult adoptee can unadopt themselves outside of somehow getting adopted by another adult or prove fraud.<br /><br /> We had a student who was a male prostitute in the baths in San Francisco in the 1980s. He was not adopted as far as I know, but when he ws i his 20s his boyfriend/sugar daddy, who was quite a bit older than he was, adopted him.Marley Greinerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15184124024369071862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2384966947084602158.post-949810715140037102010-10-06T10:02:15.062-07:002010-10-06T10:02:15.062-07:00Thanks Cedar.Thanks Cedar.Mirah Ribenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13626873757236976251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2384966947084602158.post-54748250608739750062010-10-05T23:49:35.623-07:002010-10-05T23:49:35.623-07:00Colorado laws are some of the worst on all fronts....Colorado laws are some of the worst on all fronts. Even adult adoption would be no solution for this woman. Colorado law limits a full adult adoption to people of ages 18 to 20 ("Colorado Revised Statutes, Title 19 Children's Code, ARTICLE 5 RELINQUISHMENT AND ADOPTION. PART 2 ADOPTION, 19-5-201. Who may be adopted."). Any adult adoption after this point ONLY transfers inheritance rights, NOT filiation or parental rights ("Colorado Revised Statutes, Title 14: Domestic Matters, ADOPTION - ADULTS, Article 1. Adoption of Adults, 14-1-101"), so it is basically worthless to anyone wanting to use it to annul their previous adoption.
