You dont necessarily need to adopt him in order to take care of him, adoptions are lengthy processes, and they include all sorts of legal things... You can petition for custody, or your father can sign over custody... You really need to talk to a lawyer... If you cant afford one, call the department of children and family services and find out what they suggest, or try legal aid

If the brother will come and live with you, and your father will allow it I wouldnt go through the adoption thing...they are lengthy and often tend to distress everybody in the partys
