Martouf Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 A friend has asked me to post this - she is from the uk and her Thai girlfriend has a son. I know that they cannot legally get married but is it possible for her to adopt her girlfriend's son ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matej Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 No, it's not possible. Thai legal system neither recognize gay marriage/rights nor things associated with it ... An adoption, in Thailand, means that parental responsibilities and rights of the natural parents are transferred to those responsibilities and rights to the adoptive parents. That means that a child cannot have two mothers. It can only have a biological mother and an adoptive mother or alternatively parents. From a legal point of view these 2 "institutions" are totally different and uneven when it comes to rights and responsibilities Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
