Question on adoption

[Braandan]

As per Indian adoption laws, is there a way for an adult man to adopt an adult woman as a "sister" who is actually not a blood relative? Is it possible without involving the parents of both persons?. Involving parents would be a problem as the religion, mother-tongue and states are different. Also the man's father is not alive and he has only an aged mother.

why must he adopt as "sister"

he can just treat as sister.

i think the mother of that guy should adopt the girl as a daughter

The adoption is to bring a legality to the relationship. So that others can't question "What right do you have on that girl?" or "what right do you have on that man?". The certificate can be used as proof.

with due respect to your age and experience Braandan, I have to say that a genuine "sister" relationship does not require any certification.

experience has taught me that most adopted "sister" relationship is just a cover for an illicit relationship.

[pavalamani pragasam]

No legal hassle whatsoever for openly marrying the girl!!!

Can adoption be done in isolation? In this case, if the man adopts the woman as a sister, does it not make the girl a daughter to the mother? And how can that happen unless the mother adopts the girl as her daughter?

Usually adoption flow from parent down. Have you ever heard of a child adopting parents? This is somewhat like that!!! :roll:

Besides, what is legal about a brother - sister relationship? There are no legal requirements for a brother to be met towards the sister and vice-versa. Therefore the question of adopting for legal needs doesnt arise.

Unless you are trying to sponsor a PR for someone!

Oh my god! is it so? I never thought it would be taken that way..
And to the other hubbers responding:

It is not me. I am just asking a hypothetical question.

Adoption legally means adopting a son or a daughter. You cannot legally 'adopt' a brother or a sister.
Legality of relationships predominantly addresses the issues of property rights. When property issues are not involved, it is the feelings which bind relationships. Legality has no place.

Hi,

Talking about missing, I spent half an hour in the Hubber's lounge - 'Missing hubbers' thread. My ego had nice kick on its butts when I couldn't find my mention any where and realised no body missed me!!! :? :? It was good for the soul though.
There is a world of difference between what we think what and how much people think about us, and what and how much people actually think about us. I am glad to be on my foot on earth, though I came down with a thud!! :D :D

[pavalamani pragasam]

Come on, Shekhar! We don't always think aloud! 'missing hubbers' thread is no guide to who the hubbers miss! How instantly your old friends were rejuvenated as soon as you made your appearance with characteristic humour, in style? Does that not speak for the fact of our missing you? Wipe your tears! :D

[Shakthiprabha.]

dance kathukalai, even given a chance, I dont think I was made for dance, romba kashtapatiruppen.

Brake dance dont impress me as much as indian dance, BUT ANY dance with grace (western or indian) is good to watch and I enjoy watcihng.
