More than anything, this video underscores that children all need a mother and a father.

I hope you enjoy Hell you fucking bigot.

Pax, what? How did you get that from the video? That's a really unfounded statement by the way. Who decided that all children need a mother a father? You? It's not your place to dictate other people's lives. And by the way, I know what I'm talking about because I have two gay dads myself, and no mom, and I'm perfectly fine. There's nothing wrong with my family or my life.

Rainbowheartgirl, thanks for your comment. I should have worded my statement better. Every human being has a mother and a father. That is just a biological fact. You say you have 2 dads, meaning they are raising you. You also have a mother, whether she is currently part of your life or not. Studies repeatedly show that children do best when raised in a household with their mother and father. Yes, there are exceptions, but generally children are best with their mom and dad.

Pax, that is not true. There have been about 100 studies that say children do *just as well* with two moms or two dads. I'm not an exception. My brothers and I are all fully-functioning human beings, and we were raised with as much love and encouragement as any other child. And, yes, of course everyone has a bio mother and a bio father, but your bio parents aren't necessarily the people who raise you. My mother died before I could remember, and my two dads are my legal parents.
