Two beautiful kids of two great and beautiful dads...makes me feel happy to see a happy family no matter gay or straight. Because a family is a family.

[@charlesmarkins6765]

I am a gay male whom has had 27 exchange students over the years. I am so glad that Europeans are not so hung up on people being gay. All they wanted was that I make sure their sons were safe and taken care of. I will say this once these kids were here for a few weeks, they became my "sons". I loved them as if they were one of my own. No one would try and hurt one of my "sons" because they would have to get through me first. Now at 61 I am trying to adopt a older child, to give them a home to call their own, a family to call their own, because they say older kids usually do not get adopted as often as younger kids, and most age out of the system. I want to give a child someone they know loves them, cares about them, and will be there for them for many years to come.

[@Raeikah]

So true! I never wondered "why" I didn't have a father (i have 2 moms). I eventually asked about how I was conceived, but there was no sense of a missing family member or where is 'dad'. It just doesn't cross your mind, because your family is not missing anything.

[@cassandramitch8793]

Raeikah Wonderful! Your moms are wonderful women, nuch love to you all. Your moms are doing a great job raising you.

I believe the LGBQT+ community are changing the world for the better. 👬👭👏

[@ianhorsburgh9867]

Would rather children be safe, wanted and loved in a gay household, then abandoned and abused by alcholic or drug abusive straight parents. If children are loved surely that's the most importent thing

[@cassandramitch8793]

Well said, Dee, I agree with you

[@amandacogger5221]

Dam right! Well said

Family love story of Ron and Greg Poole-Dayan and their twins Tomer and Eleanor. This story shows, what see and feel the same-sex parents, how the world gets a pair of fathers and their children, how to rise and educate the kids to meet and compete against the reactions of society. It's hard to describe the joy we feel, the Grandparents in Israel and Canada.

[@timbarnsley-parfitt4532]

Wow. Well done to you! :)

[@mercymukuhi2995]

Children who are brought up by gay parents will save the world because they're taught love and acceptance towards all humanity while kids raised by homophobics are taught to hate and segregate>{ if someone is bad they're just bad it got nothing to do with region or gender and there's no excuse for hate.

[@nah7058]

no they're not taught to hate, what's wrong with you? :l

[@musicnstuff600]

+girlperson wat yes in the case their parents are homofobic. it means they will hate LGBTcomunnity in particular.

[@nah7058]

Their parents don't go out of their way to talk about lgbt.

[@gabrielmunoz-martinez1196]

pretty true

[@cassandramitch8793]

Mercy Mukuhi very true. I agree with you!

[@anguse4030]

People who stand against same-sex parents should really see this documentary. It gives a very authentic picture that there's nothing special about same-sex parents. On the contrary, same-sex parents even need to put more efforts to protect and educate their children because of the stereotypical judgements from the society. Pay extra attention at 4:05. It really explains everything.

[@paolagrando5079]

@mark montgomery One thing is biological parents, another is who brings up and cares for you. Or are you saying that adoptive parents aren't parents?

[@barbkeen1221]

Beautiful family. Congratulations guys. And thanks a lot for sharing your reality, it’s so important for gay people on earth.

Cute - continue to live as a loving Family! Love is the most important thing in life. Best regards from Germany!

[@margaretbirch3367]

Absolutely lovely family. As part of a hetro family (female) I kept my maiden name. My son is now 24. In grade 3 I volunteered in his class. I was introduced as Mrs. son’s last name & I said no, I am Ms. my maiden name. All of the kids looked at me , in shock, with open mouths. Meanwhile, my son stayed on task, not missing a beat. People had said that I would have to take my husband’s name as it would be easier on the children. Children are not fazed by what is their normal.

[@franky4318]

The world will be a better place the day that humanity ask less and love more. It's all about LOVE !!!!

[@melaniedietrich759]

Such a wonderful family! Good luck to all of you! Greetings from Germany

[@ivyedan7183]

I have changed..I was taught to hate you as a child. to curse you to hell. damn I missed out on so much because of the ignorance of my teaching. I am sometimes still afraid I will make god mad but I can't hate this...I am sorry. I died in the recovery room 3 years ago. the god I met was all loving..so I'm going to take my chances..thank you for showing me that there is nothing to hate but hate itself

[@hulla6662]

I'm so happy for you.

a boat is not the same as a Mother, respectfully someday they may want to know

[@yv9397]

They already know. They know that they have two dads. And they who that the dads used a surrogate and their aunt donated the egg. Very easy to understand. The kids seem healthy, smart, and together. Lucky family!

[@JudgeHill]

We made the school stop celebrating Mother's Day. Gee, thanks.

[@superstubes]

Nice one guys.

[@morgothfromangband6082]

Do you ever think about the feelings and the situation of the children who are affected? The rights of the children always come first. Many homosexual people are also saying that.

[@superstubes]

Morgoth from Angband It's a good point. As long as the kids are loved and cared for - that's the most important. Yes -I'm sure there might be some silly bullies at school that might take a shot.

[@morgothfromangband6082]

superstubes I was talking about the complications for these children: 1. no mother, 2. Danger of molestation, 3. They will start asking questions about their origin, 4. These children are no objects and have parents who are probably looking for them. 5. Probably they are not even loved by the adopting gays. 6. The fact to know that their real parents could possibly have rejected them will make them suffer. All this will damage the child and would hurt him/her.

[@superstubes]

Morgoth from Angband Oh dear. These guys aren't adopting parents. Child abuse? No more at risk than if the parents were hetero.

[@morgothfromangband6082]

superstubes What do you mean with:"These guys aren't adopting parents." ? You mean they aren't adopting children who still have parents. Or didn't you understand my argumentation?

[@romanicempirium3083]

also i dont give a shit about love becose i want to be smart and chill out all day

[@chetyoubetya8565]

You are in denial big time.My son's mother left when he was 8 months old and all through his childhood especially when he was in school all he would ever say is where is my mother and you need to get me a mother.Sorry kids learn real quick that most other kids have a mother and father.

[@gabrielmunoz-martinez1196]

maybe you weren't a goo enough dad. They're being raised by two gay men so their views of a nuclear family are different.

[@gabrielmunoz-martinez1196]

jamaica is a shit hole.

[@yv9397]

Most kids DON'T have a mother and a father. 50% of straight marriages in the USA end in divorce. Many kids are raised by single parents, remarried parents, grandparents, adoptive parents, extended families, gay parents, etc.

[@ramenren4137]

I didn't know my dad until I was older(like 14). I don't think I asked once. Maybe you should have been there for your child more.

[@genghissmith4949]

macky macky Ffs sake give it up, creep.... you obviously know little about this subject and just have an anti-gay agenda.

[@LakeAriel-tc6be]

I don't get it : How would the school decided to not celebrate Mother's day and celebrated Family's day instead ? Isn't it pushing their priority a little to far ?

[@thomasbaye4805]

They are loved

[@AFLnewsNtruthatstorytime]

Wow don't celebrate mother's day only family day g I'm gay and yet I feel that's wrong, I like to celebrate my mom's day

[@thomasbaye4805]

Good for you

[@claudianoxavier2075]

Parabéns família linda ☺

[@jasonlund5949]

But...it's not just about your kid's comfort. Changing Mother's Day at their school? The children from traditional families have the same rights as your children. And you are not minorities, you are human like everyone else, so that means you part of the majority. I am a gay , and wish our community would stop thinking we are "special" because of our sexuality.

[@sandy-mr5gj]

no more mother's day???? for god's sake. The child loses.

[@staciegreen8659]

When 2 gay people have a child that isn't of their own gender, how do they deal with the child once they hit puberty? I can't imagine the daughter feeling comfortable asking her fathers for period supplies and bras/underwear.

[@yv9397]

Many girls don't feel comfortable asking any parent those questions, if the parents are not open. These dads are super open to discussing difficult topics, obviously. I can imagine them sharing a great resource with the kids, like a women's health book. Plenty of girls with straight moms don't talk about body stuff either due to the mom's uptightness or now knowing how to handle it, right? It depends on the parents.

[@genghissmith4949]

macky macky Lol, what do you know about anything? And why have you ignored Y V’s INTELLIGENT points?

[@ludivinewittenberg3878]

👍👍👍👍👍

[@rafaelplascencia5017]

I'm sorry, but this gets me mad. Why should the school district change to accommodate a minority. They school district doesn't celebrate Mother's Day because these kids don't have a mother and now they celebrate Family Day because they made them change it. REALLY.????!!!!!
