The term I find sad is ''adopted son''
My beloved came to me and she had an 18 month old son who I knew about but she was afraid to bring him with her.
I told her ''he is part of you and he will be part of us.''
Ben arrived and he settled in well and he has always been regarded as our son, his two younger brothers have never made any remarks concerning his background, he knows his biological father but he has always regarded me as his father.
Sorry, but I regard and find the term ''adopted son'' something of a barrier to a relationship. to my mind it causes problems, angst and loss of respect, basically it's a very patronising term.

In some things I may be simple, but to me a son is a son whatever the legal aspects. Technically speaking though wouldn't the child your wife had from a previous relation become your stepson rather than adopted son? Mind you the 'adopted' part might make the legal difference when dear papa has past away and the inheritance has to be divided. Probably there's also a difference in how it's 'judged' in Thailand and in the UK.

My step son, my wife's son, is my son, he lives with us, regards me as his father. His real father he knows, but not well. Adopted son is the son of the owner of my local, the shop. His father died when he was six years old. He gave me the honorific, as for years i have been his teacher, mentor and friend.Fear not siampolee, i hear you.

I'll make it simple , I have three sons, biological sons. One step son. who is my wife's son. She has a daughter too, my step daughter. Thai way, when non marriages split, father takes daughter, mother son. Daughter i have known since she was four years old, son six. Daughter often lived with us. Her father i know. She lives with him mostly, but with us often.Learnt a lot from her mother and dare i say me. When step son came out of prison, step daughter was attacked by him. Jealousy, that i liked her more than him. Not true. But she had never shamed the family. She left here, very angry, but not angry with me or our son. She still writes to him. I miss her, hell , so like her mother.

I will add, daughter has a respectable job, and not a bar worker. That much she did learn.

I just went in to the bathroom. Told my , i thought wife, my eyes are dim without glasses, to get out of the shower as i was in a hurry. Scream. It was daughter not wife in the shower.

And you might ask, or perhaps not, why daughter is no longer with us. Head strong, like her mother. The battle of the siblings. Wife was accused of favouring her son. Alarm bells! It took off, war. I a passive bystander, nothing i could do. Bloody furious with my (step) son, and he had backed down. Face anyone.
