Apologies if this is not the best place to ask. My SIL has remarried and obviously would like her DH to have parental responsibility for my nephew. My brother quite appreciates why this makes sense but is a reluctant to sign the agreement because he is afraid it will give SIL's DH a better chance of adopting which is not something he is prepared to agree to (SIL and her DH both want this).
Can anyone give me any advice or assurances that I can pass on to my brother. I want to set his mind at rest but also smooth the way for SIL and her DH as my brother will flat out refuse to sign the parental responsibility agreement if it means he could lose his son altogether.
Thanks
