Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

Re: family

You should consult directly with an attorney regarding your rights, both as to the marriage, and the children. Only after discussing your specific situation can an attorney advise you -- but it is often very valuable to be prepared in advance if you think he is about to leave (i.e. property, car, bank accounts, etc)

It is very unusual for a judge to allow termination of parental rights without a concurrent stepparent adoption. Your situation may warrant it, but it would be specific to you.

Good luck.
