1. stepfather

   Terry White A Stepfather is the replacement husband of your mother who may choose to adopt the children of a biological father who has died. If the biologicial father is alive and your mother remarries or enters a common-law relationship you cannot become a stepchild as you have a living father. In effect only one father can exist any time. The term Stepfather or Step mother is often used incorrectly in these circumstances. Your mother's new husband role would become a Caregiver if he so chooses.
