wife can get the maintenance but in case of son if he has been adopted by the second husband then he becomes the son of second husband and in that capacity he becomes entitled for maintenance otherwise he can not claim maintenance.

Yes, both are entitled for maintenance from divorced husband. However, if there is an one time settlement of alimony under Decree of Divorce, they may not be so entitled.
