    …do you not understand how an abusive parent being on the birth certificate would have legal and custody implications?

    That’s not something that only the DMV/passport office sees, family judges see and may use that to determine custody arrangements, which can lead to abuse. I’m not sure how you managed to ignore the biggest and most obvious implications of changing parentage on the birth certificate.

      One’s adoptive parents have full custody, that is the point of adoption.
