Who is your father, the one you would rely on when you need a paternal figure, the dude who shoot his sperm or the dude who raised you? Hopefully both dudes are the same person but in the case they aren’t, I think the answer is clear.

I’d be surprised if adopted kids don’t consider the people who raised them as parents as their actual parents.

I mean first one might just be a father figure, second is the biological father and the third might be a step-father. All fathers of sort

  You would be technically correct with the first two, but adopted kids are not step-kids. Those aren’t are legally full parents, not step-parents. Step-parents might be the boyfriend or next husband of a single mother or vice-versa, but once you are adopted, if we are getting pedantic about it, the step thing disappears.
