Thanks for sharing your story - that take some balls - inspiring 4sure. Lets all take a minute to think about ONE THING we can do, no matter how large or small, to bring love like this into the world and do it. Let us learn that the good and the bad bring us to the Fullness Of Humanity (FOH) and we can turn any bad into some good for ourselves and others... What is your one thing to bring love into the world???

This gives me hope for our un-United States. POS Judge Alito...publicly came out and said that abortions need to be banned...because our country "needs more White babies". That is the state of our Dis-Union. My first thought about that statement was that there are plenty of foster kids who need safe and healthy permanent homes. THEY are the product of parents who should have never gotten pregnant and unfit to raise any child. SCOTUS Haters like Thomas, and Alito and all the rest of those judges who banned abortion for such a flimsy and racist reason should be FIRED...I hope one day they burn in the Hell they believe in for their evil actions.

I’m a retired child protection social worker and it would break my heart to have children take their belongings in trash bags - as if we felt they were trash themselves. My quilt group made a massive effort to make quilts for each kid coming into foster care and their belongings were in backpacks or suitcases. One woman (now in her 50’s) stays in touch with me and a few years ago showed me she still had what was left of her quilt. Tattered beyond recognition I was incredibly moved that 40 some odd years later it still meant so much to her. My thanks and huge hugs to these dads for loving these kids and giving them a loving place in their hearts to call home. ❤

You are spot on! If having gay parents mean your kids will become gay, then there should not be very many gay people on the planet, since most kids were conceived through heterosexual intercourse and raised by straight parents. So if straight parents end up with gay kids, just maybe gay parents will end up with straight kids. Seriously though, the sexual identity of ones parents does not dictate the child's sexual identity. People need to stop the hate and let loving parents share their lives with kids that need good parents and love, notwithstanding the parents' sexual identity, FULL STOP!!

I am an adoptee 75 years ago. I hit the jackpot with my parents, so loving and gentle and compassionate. At 53 I met my younger half-sister and she lived the life I would have had. Her father, my step-father, was abusive to her and my birth mom. I’m so happy for your kids and you to build a loving household. Both sides reap what you sow, just like I’m reaping what my adoptive parents, now deceased, have sown in me: love, joy, compassion and gratefulness.

I was brought up by my biological parents. I was one of 8 kids. I was number 6 down the line. Since I was around 4-5 years of age, I could tell my mother didnt want me around. To this day, many years later, I feel my heart is crying for the love I so longed for. In the 18 years spent in her home, not one kiss, or hug, or "I love you" ....nothing!

How many were inspired by Don Trump only to find out what a huge, consistent liar he is? God said murderers, fornicators, adulterers, gossipers, liars, thieves, homosexuals will not enter the kingdom of heaven > because evil is not OF God, evil is OF Satan. God said there is ONLY good or evil. The mafia says "Murder is only business". Baby killers say "Abortion is only a procedure on a glob". A thief says, "I only steal from the rich & give to the poor". An adulterer says "We just love one another". We are all born in sin. It's up to us to strive to live 'good' lives and ditch the stupid excuses why it's o.k. to live a forbidden life by God's teachings. Doing a confetti full of good things for others will never undo the choices we make to live outside of God's laws. On the day of judgment all the titles, land, money, friends, applause good deeds, that we gathered during a lifetime will disappear. The only data on Judgment Day will be how we served God, or how we served Satan. It's a choice, not a birth defect.

From a Los Angeles County DCFS social worker, thank you. We have thousands of wonderful foster caregivers, some decent ones, and (sadly) some abusive and selfish ones. The type of family unit does not matter, but the commitment and love from the caregiver does. Congratulations on being stellar dads and raising great human beings. And yes, the trash bags are still used because some kids move so often that they lose their stuff. It's easy to grab a clean bag and load their things for the next place. Sometimes we save large shopping bags to use instead--same function, but better than the infamous large black trash bin bags. L.A. County spends millions of dollars to fund foster placements. It would be simple to buy large canvas bags for each child to move their clothing and what little personal property they take with them. Many church groups make them for us, sometimes with the kids' names painted or embroidered on them, and it helps the kids feel more important. I'm sorry Rob suffered abuse as a child. That's horrible, and it doesn't end.

Fantastic story! I was a foster parent for 6 years. I stopped when I adopted my foster son who needed a full time mom. Working with my son was very labor intensive because he was already a teenager when I adopted him and while he was very smart he was also very immature. He needed to grow up a lot in a short time. It wasn’t easy and as a young rebellious adult he made some bad decisions. But today he is a responsible young man and a wonderful father. Fostering was one of the best decisions I ever made. My first foster daughter still calls me from time to time to let me know how she is doing. It is so rewarding to hear how happy she is.

I think the most impactful moment was his sponsoring the kid’s in care. Having a backpack is monumentally different than toting your belongings in a trash bag. The trash bag symbolizes, that you are just a pawn in a system that doesn’t really care about you. The backpack effort is huge. It says that you’re somebody worthy of adoption and care and are special.

He's right. The foster kids have so precious little, and to be moved with your few belongings in a trash bag is degrading and embarrassing. What a neat thing to give them nice bags. It's a small thing but I bet it means the world to those children.

What an amazing story that should be taught in every classroom. They found out their son who had fetal alcohol syndrome would benefit from being near water and animals so he and his partner bought a farm.

What a Terrific story! I truly appreciate these two men for loving their children and making their lives easier. We need more people like Rob and his husband, and to stop putting our prejudices on others, especially for the children in need.

As much as I believe that all children do best with a mother & father both raising them, for far too many kids that's not possible. I'm so happy seeing these men give 4 beautiful kids a loving home.

I watched this years ago and it tugged on my heart. Now that my little Elijah (my miracle baby) was born in October this year... it hits different. When my son was born it was as if a fire ignited within my soul and opened a new door for children. I want to save children who are in danger or need help, love, anything. It’s heartbreaking thinking of a childhood that is anything but lovely.

God said murderers, fornicators, adulterers, gossipers, liars, thieves, homosexuals will not enter the kingdom of heaven > because evil is not OF God, evil is OF Satan. God said there is ONLY good or evil. The mafia says "Murder is only business". Baby killers say "Abortion is only a procedure". A thief says, "I only steal from the rich & give to the poor". An adulterer says "We just love one another". We are all born in sin, it's up to us to strive to live 'good' lives and ditch the stupid excuses why it's o.k. to live a forbidden life by God's teachings. Doing a confetti list full of good intentions will never undo the choices we make to live outside of God's laws. When we die, all the titles, land, money, friends, applause, or good deeds that we gathered during a lifetime will disappear. The only data on Judgment Day will be how we served God, or how we served Satan. It's a choice, not a birth defect. The world is in constant chaos because man has turned a blind eye toward evil, thus, allowing it to reign.
