Hello,

Now I find that ludacris .. I have nothing about homosexuality ..

but I believe that if you are a man you follow that route .. you simply threw away you chances of having a baby ..

so adoption is out of the question or should be out of the question ..

now if they were to find a women and have a baby with her .. and decides to file for custody .. no problem ..

the same if they were "straight" first and had kids .. then turn or acknowledge their homosexuality .. no problem for custody either .. even as a gay couple ..

but not adoption ..

and in this story .. at 46 and 59 .. they are well able to take care of their grandson .. it wouldn't be unheard of ..

ps: phil you are too old to mind your youngest so I'll advice the authority .. Laughing

I believe that if all is well with the family, that is where the children belong but we don't know the details. The grand parents are far from being too old so maybe there is something else going on there.

Gay men adopting..... why not. Just because you are the "natural parents" doesn't mean you are fit, capable or are full of parental love. A saying I have often heard is "and you need a licence for a dog" when you see how some parents treat their children.

The gay couple may have a stable, loving home to offer these children but there again we don't know the details of the selection process. The Daily Mail is renowned for it's right wing slant on stories so who knows what the truth is in all of this.

Newspapers in general never let the facts spoil a good story.
