Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

Re: Step=parents

Depends on what purpose you are evaluating this for.

Usually this question arises to ask whether a step-

parent is one of a step-parent's "children" in a will.

It depends on how children are defined in the will,

but unless specifically included, step-children would

not be considered children. Being the primary caretaker

will not cut it for legal purposes in a will, however some

other entities such as schools sometimes view this

differently.
