He’s going to have two daddies

I also am considering placing you on my ignore list myself now that you had come out to the "closet" as being a nut case is so clear a manner.

Attacking your dead wife indeed!!!!!!!!!!

I just wrote a post to that effect, CJane, and then deleted it so as not to be thread hall-monitor yet again. But of course I agree with you.
If you two insist on feeding BillRM, could you at least not quote him? The quote system is not necessary if you reply directly to his threads instead of clicking on reply all, as you can simply click on his name at the top of your reply to see what he said.

My father is Italian who happened to be in Puerto Rico when he met my mother and I was conceived. I grow up in a one parent home, my mother was my role model. My son will grow up in a two parent household and they happen to be two males and I couldn’t ask for a better person in sharing my sons life then my partner. Some kids grow up in a single family home, mine will be one of the lucky ones to grow up with two strong role models, they just happen to be two males.

Once more for the thousands and one time I had never stated that children can not be raised in loving homes successfully of any sex ratio.

Once more also my wife did a nice job of raising her two daughters with little help from their father as had many other single parents had done.

All the above does not mean however that it would not be nice or of benefit if you could also grant your son a loving grandmother or aunt or close family female friend to get emotional attach to.

We live in a strange world where the very idea that children can benefit from having emotional bonds with adults of both sexes is consider an nutty position to take or a hateful position to take.

Antonio has his grandma but she lives in Miami so he doesn’t see her that often. His auntie Isabel lives just over the bridge in Tampa and he adores her.

Our Sunday Funday is on hold as he’s still napping. When he wakes up we are heading to the beach, he loves to swim, he’s like a little tadpole lol.

I find it of great interest that the daring to suggest/claimed that there is an inherent benefits from having members of both sexes in a child life is an awful position to take and brand you as a hater of single parents and gay couples with children.

We are living in strange times indeed and Robert Heinlein crazy years’ period that he wrote about in his fiction keep coming into my mind as I read the responses to my comments on this thread

I am sorry that his grandmother live so far away and it nice that there is an aunt involved.

Extended families is of great benefit when raising children.

I was just talking to my wife in fact about offering her one daughter with three young ones a chance to get away on us for a week in Cancun with her husband and we would baby sit the kids for them for that week.

You're quite right, it doesn't matter who is in the child's life as long as he feels loved and taken care of. Parents come in all shape and forms these days and it is a good thing. Morgan is certainly going out of his way to make Antonio feel at home and loved, there is absolutely nothing wrong with Antonio having two dads.

Thank you Jane, I just love this kid. I was so nervous at first but I'm way over that now, he is such a smart little boy and I adore having him around. I would do anything for him and he will never go without or ever feel unloved. He's going to be one luckly little boy!

.

Strange we keep going back to the subject that there is nothing wrong with having two dads and yet no one had posted otherwise on this thread except for some nut in the very beginning if memory serve me correctly.

Of course there seems to be people willing and even eager to stretch a mile to find such a statement hidden away so they can show how open minded and PC they happen to be on this subject of gay couples raising children together.

Sorry but I have no problem with these two men raising a child together even it I also dare to think that it would be helpful if the child is able to also form emotional bonds with family members of both sexes during his childhood.

Growing up completely surrounded with love is indeed wonderful feeling as I happen to had been lucky enough to had known that with my parents and my one set of grandparents living on the same property and all of them willing to spend time and love on me at a drop of a hat.

I sadly lost my second father IE my grandfather when I had just started college.

In fact he tried to chew me out on his death bed for taking time to visit him in the hospital when he knew I had homework to do and I remember telling him that he was far more important to me then any college assignment.

The man passed away that very night and thank god I did go and saw him and got to tell him I love him one last time.

Hell this occur a lifetime ago and I am still am getting tears in my eyes thinking about it.

Aaron Small you was a wonderful man indeed.

So we took Antonio to the beach for two hours. He had a blast. I personally don’t care for the beach, all the sand and the wind blowing. Takes two hours to moisturize when you get home.

Moisturize?

LOL All right we already all know that you are gay.

How is the kid swimming by the way or is he allow in the water yet?

One of the best of my childhood memories were being tossed around by the breaking waves at the New Jersey shore and that was at a very early age.

Men moisturizing is not a gay thing. I learned it from my very straight friend Christian in California. He would go surfing every weekend and then spend an hour in the bathroom moisturizing.

Times they are sure a changing if straight men are now moisturizing after the beach. Maybe if I had watch more of the Jersey shore program I would had known that.

Will wonders in any case never end in this life?

Oh is the boy allow to enter the water yet or not?

Nothing to do with times changing. My favourite 81 year old male knows more about moisturizing than I ever will.

He taught my mother everything she knew about moisturizer as well. Moisturizer knowlege isn't male/female/sexuality-based. Some people just are more aware of how to keep their skin looking/feeling healthy.

He loves the water, we don’t have waves here on St. Pete Beach like I did when living in CA and the water temp is over 80. Of course he’s only in the water with us, we would never allow him out alone.

Isn’t that the truth. It never crossed my mind until my friend told me he moisturized. And he was this big rugged construction worker type guy.

Lord I love the water also as child and as soon as the watch temperature was warm enough not to go into shock at once I was annoying my parents about going to the beach.

Happy to hear that you are getting him comfortable in the water as being comfortable around and in the water should serve him well all his life.
