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.
You would be technically correct with the first two even though I was talking in social terms,not technical ones, 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.

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

Oh okay, i just thought it came from not being the biological father
