  1. anyone managed to change stepchild's name without adoption?

    Lostworld2016 posted a topic in Family and Children
    Sorry for the cryptic title. But my Thai wife, who has my farang surname, has just been told by her local amphoe that her stepson cannot take her/my name without going all the way through adoption, which some of you may know is a real pain in the botham. So does anyone out there have any good news: have any of you fellow farang managed (in relatively recent times) to change a stepchild's name to yours without jumping through hoops? I'm told it is legal and in fact the amphoe is not entitled to refuse, but that's only lawyer-talk. Any success stories would cheer us up (my son's really depressed right now...).
