From whom do adopted children inherit today?

What will be an ideal response?


Adopted children inherit from their adoptive parents. They may be able to inherit from their natural parents. Natural parents generally cannot inherit from children they have given up for adoption. Adoptive parents will inherit from children they adopted. (Note that in many wills, adoption is stated to be of those persons under age 18 or 21 to prevent adoption of adults hoping to partake in the inheritance.)
