My wife (aka "civil union partner") had to do the same thing with both of our children. It's a double standard that needs to be addressed! Best wishes Erica and Tevonda, and thank you for stepping up on behalf of your own family, and ours.
Erica and Tevonda - we are so inspired by your love and the appreciation you express for each other's beauty, uniqueness and soul connection. We support you in your journey for equal treatment. Our love and compassion is always with you. Richard & Sylvia.
This pisses me off that they won't give them the baby to a loving couple simply cause of sexual orientation status! Long ago, our societies raised their children in a matriarchy where primarily a village of womyn and children raise the kids. How the hell did we get from having the community - as it should be - taking care of the family to having this selfish arrangement where only a womyn and a man in marriage can raise a child in the context of a nuclear family?
Thank you all so much for your love and support, it really means so much to us, we are all connected, equality isn't merely for our family, or the LGBT community equality is for all of us. Much Love, Peace, & Light! E~
i hope for the sake of love and family everything turns out right for you. better a child is raised in a loving home with two weman than a bad home with sadness and misery.
@Realbigsource It's not confusing. If they didn't adopt, they probably used a sperm donor to get pregnant. Either way, both women are the moms of the baby.
@ RealBigsource..it's sounds like you have a problem with 2 women raising a kid. Asking that question was real ignorant...NO one should have to explain something so simple to you so it goes to show how intelligent you are.
Congrats to the both of you , you have a beautiful family. My wife and I also have 2 great kids that we are raising. One is 14 yrs old and the other is 22 months and he was planned and it's great, we are now planning to have another one in the next 2 year.
As a Christian Promoting Same-Sex Marriage, I hate it when people throw in the Bible to "justify" their position. I once said that the law of the land decides things, and in America the Law is that Religion is separate from State. The Law is that your rights end when they infringe upon another's. Marriage only effects the two people (or more) getting married. Besides, the only REAL reason it's not legal is because law makers are greedy and apparently same-sex marriages don't add to the tax rev.
@Ragexmr (cont), reorganized and lost countless times in it's multiple thousands of years of being in existence. That's not a judgement that's necessarily relevant to the argument at hand, just a thought.
Isn't it time for a Bible:2012 version? Ie: Men no longer have to stone their adulterous wives, maybe shrimp is okay once in a while etc.
