I don't think I would just come out and say I don't "want", I think I would just say something like, "it may be beneficial if I not adopt him because" and then explain why. If he is 12, he may want to keep his last name, and he may very well not like you in a year or 2. In case you haven't had teenagers yet, they hate parents. They think parents is the dumbest thing since "Dumbo". So you have reasons not to adopt him, very legitimate reasons at that. I totally understand since I have 3 step kids of my own.
