Re: family law - taking care of my wife's child
If you are taking care of a child then the child is in your "adult" custody. This does not mean that you would pay support for the child except if you represented the child in public to be your own or one that you have adopted. Your question needs to be resubmitted as to what you mean by "custody." Contact an attorney for assistance.
