Best Answer

If the abuse is extreme and you feel the child's wellbeing is threatened, call the local authorities who will investigate the matter. If the child is taken from the home due to unsafe environment you might be able to serve as a foster home. If the parental rights are revoked at the end of foster living you might be able to adopt the child.

So to answer the question: Yes, you can but not without a legal process of the parental rights being removed. There are criteria involved that must be met. In most cases you cannot just hire an attorney, seek custody of the child and become their adoptive parent.
