The law presumes and unmarried female, regardless of her age, has the legal right to make any decision concerning a unborn or born child. Before the court will address any custodial issue whether it relates to adoption or custody parentage must be established. If the man who is believed to be the father does not sign the birth certificate or a declaration of parentage upon the birth of the child, a paternity test is required. Until parentage is authenticated, the alledged father has no rights to the child whatsoever. Upon the birth of the child, it becomes his responsibility to file suit for custody or visitation and to provide proof to the court that he is indeed the child's biological father. The mother retains the legal right to contest any action initiated by him or any other parties.

The issue isn't how long they've been in custody. Once the parental rights have been terminated (TPR - termination of parental rights), the child is eligible for adoption. If the children have not been TPR'd then they are not eligible for adoption.
