He told step-father he wants to do better than his father. I am now starting to think how lucky MIL was that her H walked away..and didn't hang around an make life harder!!!
I know...why did I work so hard to get WH to bond with S? I should have talked him into leaving!! I can relate in a different way.
About the surname...if you get remarried, and your new husband is there 100% time, where WH drops in every now and then, will your new husband end up adopting your daughter? Is that legal over there? Would you be able to give your daughter his surname?
The reason why I ask all these questions is because at birth, I had my biological dad's last name. My parents divorced when I was 2ish. My mom remarried when I was 4. My bio dad dropped in once in a blue moon, so when I was 7 my stepdad "adopted" me and then I took his last name.
