Re: adaption
You need to get into counseling with your daughter so you can learn what is going on and why. You also need to learn what your 21 year old can do as a mother figure that you cannot do.
A judge will not be pleased to grant an adoption just because you have problems. There needs to be a showing of what is in the best interests of the child - not the parent.
