I am a 50 year old disabled Marine. I also was a single father and raised my son in a loving home with a suppirtive family and although I know nothing about the gay, lesbian or any other lifestyles other then mine, I have seen many children who are the products of broken homes and I see nothing wrong with 2 loving adults raising a child together. I wish you all the happiness in the world and may you always be blessed beyond measure..
This nurse literally harassed a woman who had just given birth. Setting aside the fact that this is grossly homophobic, I don't think this nurse is stable enough to fulfill the basic function of her job.
Yes she is. You're the one who's not stable. She had the guts to call out a woman who decided to give away her baby to a male 'couple'. No doubt she was well paid for betraying her baby to its fate.
@@williambunter3311 I'm curious what you think makes this a betrayal. Would you say the same about other people who choose adoption, or do you have some reason that two men in a loving relationship would be less equipped to raise a child?
Right could you imagine someone telling this child in the future the reason she wasn’t adopted was because some people thought that two dads wouldn’t be able to raise him correctly
@Thomas Smith Bigot Noun A person who is intolerant towards those holding different beliefs Similar: dogmatist, partisan, racist, sexist, homophobia Don't say for someone to look up the definition before doing so yourself
Thomas Smith i literally stated a fact, the synonym of bigotry is homophobe. A synonym is a word that relates, correlates, or means the same as another word. Thats all. So by text book definition, a person who believes that a person attracted to the same gender as theres is wrong or has prejudice towards a homosexual, can be considered a bigot.
Thomas Smith as someone who uses a dictionary to prove a point, your grammar is literally the worst ive seen. If you want to try and convey your point to me, i suggest you work on that with actual evidence instead of relying on insults. Have a great day!!
I grew up with gay parents and turned out pretty exceptional. Unfortunately my mothers dealt with a similar homophobic nurse situation. It's fulfilling to show them that they're wrong.
A. E. Eeeey I had gay moms too and I wouldn’t say I’m exceptional but at least I’m not a bigot. And they had problems regarding homophobia as well raising me and my siblings.
As a 15 year old homosexual boy I am often told that I will never live a normal life, these stories help me stay positive and strong. Thank you so much.
I suggest you talk to friends you trust about your homophobic surroundings. Make the right friends. Friends you wouldn't expect to make. It's really magical how much a good and open-minded friend can do to help and maintain optimism.
Listen man. I'm 19 and bisexual. My name is Jack. I just wanted to let you know that there are gonna be ignorant people but you are perfectly ok and just advising you not to be influenced by bigoted people who've chosen not to be tolerant. I wish you the best of luck finding love and having an amazing life!
CharlotteNCJack Uh, yeah you can live a normal life. Society is more accepting now, and will be more accepting as society develops. Sexuality shouldn't determine whether you can or cannot live a normal life, and it depends on what you mean by normal.
+DonutAssassin No, in today's society you will always be marginalized and scrutinized by people. At the same time you will have people who love and care for you for who you are, yet you will still be treated differently. Your life won't be exactly normal, but different. Probably in a good way
+Mr Cocky Does it matter? Having a straight child with two gay parents doesn't mean the child's views and opinions are automatically invalid. Stop acting like lgbt is an exclusive group that only the "approved" few can get into.
Y’all I think Calvin was just curious... I get what you guys are saying, but I truly think he/she was just asking a question. The truth is we will never change the world if we only answer questions as if they’re all insults. No “alternative relationships” will he accepted if we only get angry. Fighting anger with anger does not rid the world of anger. It simply makes anger more tolerable.
@@williambunter3311 you really missed the point of the comment. The point is that They would be happy with two loving fathers, never said anything about not a loving father and mother. It's god's will to give a child parents, whether that's two men, two women, a dad and a mum, a step dad and a mum, a step mum and a dad, a single mum, a single dad, foster parents, you name it. No matter who they are, god's will is for kids to have loving parents, even if they aren't always loving. I don't believe in God, but I have been to Christian school, so I know about Christianity somewhat.
@@gloriamcinerney7383 No, Gloria, you know nothing about 'Christianity somewhat'. Show me from the bible a single verse that champions same-sex marriage, 'parenthood', or homosexual relations' You will not be able to do so. Though if you look with the smallest degree of honesty and integrity you will find a multiplicity of prohibition of these sins. By the way, how can you state, as you do that god's will is for kids to have loving parents, and then in the very next statement say you don't believe in God? Confused much?
@@williambunter3311 Why are you here? Why do you feel it necessary to promote your religion? This video has nothing to do about religion, it's about homophobia. My mother taught me that if you don't have anything nice to say - then don't say it at all. So, go to another channel where you can bitch to someone who cares.
Just seeing this. As a gay nurse, that nurse should have been reported. She violated so many many many laws, ethics. BTW we have four kids..All honor roll kids, all straight. 2 boys, 2 girls
I adopted my son when he was 5. I was a single father, but the adoption went smoothly. A year and half later, I met my partner and I went from being a single dad to a couple who shared responsibility of this child. It was tough at times....especially when my son entered his teenage years, but my son never lied to his friends about having 2 dads. He was never ashamed of it. And now he just turned 23 and is serving in the US Army (He's currently in Afghanistan). We could not be prouder of the man he has become. Congrats on your adoption and you will find that there are more accepting people than there are ignorant fools. Enjoy your son! I'm sure he is loved!
Conservatives: Gays can’t raise children! Also conservatives: *Raises a drug addicted, illiterate, hateful mess that has no critical thinking skills.* Gays: *Raises badasses.*
I have two aunts, but I'm only related to one, the other is her partner. I spent A LOT of time with them growing up. I didn't realize until I was about 18 or 19 that they were lesbians. It struck me like a thunderbolt to the head. Being Pansexual myself, it didn't bother me. I was just surprised I didn't notice it earlier. The point is I never questioned it, to me they were my aunts and since no one made a point of it and they didn't really say anything about it, I just automatically thought it normal. Which leads me to this: Same sex parents can be seen as normal by their children. Sure, there might eventually be questions, but it's not all that different from any other question. I think it's outside influences, example that nurse, or perhaps some priest or just someone who's homophobic, that make it not normal. They want it not to be normal because they're too ignorant to accept people for, well, being people.
Of course he was never ashamed of it. Between the two of you, you brainwashed the poor lad into thinking his situation was 'normal' or morally acceptable. And what the hell does a single man think he's doing adopting a child in the first place? Maybe one day you will be full of shame.
I am so sick of people turning away LGBTQ parents for adoption. Like okay so you would rather this kid have no parents then it have gay parents. It's just so sad.
@Patrick Cage Well that would imply they care about people's marriage or the children in question. They don't. They're just using it as an excuse to attack LGBT people. You can tell that because they never have anything to say on the matters of divorce or orphanhood outside of these specific circumstances.
Patrick Cage What? People can divorce if they want to. Why should they stay married if their relationship is so bad they think they should separate. Staying together wouldn’t be good for either of them and they would be much happier away from each other if it’s really that bad.
@Patrick Cage also why get rid of abortion? you don't know how a woman might have gotten pregnant, its her fucking body and if she wants to get an abortion(not past the second trimester) then she should be allowed to without any hate or backlash except for the possibility of medical problems following the abortion and orphanhood will always be here in humanity because people do die suddenly(car crashes, undetectable unstoppable health problems), there will always be orphans, whether we like it or not
@Patrick Cage I'm sorry but that's not how it works... You can't just "protest orphanhood" that doesn't get orphaned children out of an orphanage. You can't just protest against divorce/abortion that's a human right that should not be taken away, even when you don't agree with it
Nurse should be fired. She has no place imposing her views on a patient. The birth mom did the best thing given her situation. She should be commended for her bravery and selflessness.
If someone did this at any other job, they would be fired or at the very least reprimanded. It's a job. Besides, most kids dont get into university and then turn out just fine. Get down off your rich ass soap box.
2lεgiϯܢ no the nurse was a bitch. The couple couldn't have a baby and she wanted to help. The kid is in safe hands. You're only saying this because they're both man but I bet if it was a heterosexual couple you wouldn't even be bitching. People like you always have something bad to say about same sex couples.
Starscream91 The kid is fine. He has great parents. The gender of their parents has nothing to do with how well their parenting is. This is coming from someone raised by a single mom.
@@aributera4905 And how do you know that the kid is fine? Perhaps you should read the research done by Mark Regnerus showing that kids raised in same-sex couples showing distress after learning that they have been used to promote adult's political agenda. Just because majority of psychological organizations that are connected with homosexual agenda say that children with gay parents do fine, it is not necessarily so.
@@samtkach5255 Kids aren't use for politcal agenda. You're acting as if all kids with same sex parents are studied. And I have read many studies. Kids with same sex parents who show distress report being bullied by their peers, this isn't the parents fault. Other studies shows that many same sex parents struggle with income
Thousands of children need a home. Thousands... Our system is broken. We need loving people ready and willing to care for children. Ready and willing to love them unconditionally. Because let's face it not every hetero 2 parent house hold is loving or caring. I'd rather have 2 gay dads then the psycho adoptive mom I ended up with.
@Talitha Untono actually no I'm not I was lucky enough to be adopted. But the family I had broke and due to the system in place I was forced to live with an abuser. CPS was called and nothing happened. Cops were called and nothing happened. Every time I asked for help they decided not to do anything to actually help. And I was lucky. There are children that have it so much worse because there wasn't anyone willing to help. There are children now in a horrible situation because our system is broken and no one is standing up. Id rather been adopted by gay parents who loved me over the woman who ruined every moment of my childhood. No I'm not okay.
"Aren't you afraid of the boy wont grow up normal?" I'd say, "The only thing I'm scared of is how people like you don't mind their own damn business. It's my baby not yours."
And this is why lgbtq people respect religious people until they are jerks. In truth most religious people are fine with gay people, it’s just the most ignorant people are always the loudest. Thank you stranger for giving religious people a good name.
I'm so relieved it actually turned out okay!! That nurse should be educated...or relieved of duty. I smell religion. Beautiful family. Wishing you all the best.
David Rodgers But she DIDN'T accommodate. She was doing her best to screw up a perfectly legal arrangement. Legal. Civil. Constitution. It's hard only if you can't or won't read and compare.
nothing wrong with two men raising a child just like single dads raise children perfectly fine. I rather have two loving dads over having a horrible life in foster care and facing the world alone at 18. If I was bullied in school over it I would teach them a lesson
+garybsg You're not disagreeing with gays, you're preventing people from living their lives and there is no "wealth of research" claiming what you claim. I feel sorry for you because your hate and anger is peculiar and entirely irrational.
I'm a psychologist. I'm not sure where you are getting your research from - the vast majority of research shows there is nothing damaging about homosexual parents. I'm happy to debate that with you, referring to actual evidence, if you want to? Also, I think you're sorely misunderstanding why this incident is being considered homophobic - and no, it's not just a case of 'disagreeing' with 'gays'. The nurse believed their homosexuality made them a risk to a young male child (I sincerely doubt she was saying to other mothers, 'watch your husband around your baby daughter. He might molest her'.) That is homophobic, and it could have lost them their child. There are no higher rates of paedophilia amongst homosexual men compared to straight men. If you can't see how her actions were far more than having an innocent disagreement with a gay person, and getting falsely accused of homophobia, you are both very blinkered, and lacking empathy.
It WILL end. This is the exact same type of hysteria that plagued us sixty years ago when interracial marriage was the big taboo of the country. There will always be haters, but they're doomed to become the minority
@@crazyhai8155 What about the study of Mark Regnerus? You see, your profession is being hijacked by gay activists therefore it almost impossible to find an unbiased research. Please, explain to me, how do you expect for a child to be happy when he learns that his biological mother has abandoned him for the sake of two unrelated men?
What a lucky little boy to have 2 loving dads. I hope the mother filed a complaint with the hospital. No nurse should be speaking to her about her decision. You (and the mother) should consult a civil litigation lawyer. Sue the hospital AND the nurse .... the hospital should terminate the nurse.
@@samtkach5255 Having loving parents who want the child is what's in the best interest of the child. Some hospital nurse butting her nose where it doesn't belong isn't in anyone's best interest but her own self gratification.
@@dmnemaine it is always in the best interests to have children being raised by their biological parents. Hence, it's appropriate to ask if putting up children for adoption is the right decision, and nurses always ask those questions to both heterosexual and homosexual couples. There are times, when giving up children for adoption is the only way, depending on circumstances. There's no way of knowing that the nurse demeaned these men for their sexual orientation, hence it's only their assumption that they were being discriminated. If there was a man and a woman couple and the nurse , you wouldn't be having qualms about it. I see that gay rights activists want to have their irrational feelings to be the legal norm.
@@samtkach5255 Children who are put up for adoption do not have the luxury of being raised by their biological parents. Their best interest lies with their adoptive parents. Neither you nor that nurse had any idea what that birth mother's situation was. And no, nurses do not "always" ask those questions. Nurses are there for medical care, not social work. The birth mother had a social worker for that. None of anyone's business but the birth mother and the adoptive parents. And absolutely, positively, yes, I would have a huge problem with that nurse asking those questions in the case of a heterosexual couple adopting that little boy. Asking a vulnerable patient who has just given birth nosy questions about her decision regarding the adoption of the child is insidiously evil at worst and highly insensitive at best.
Seriously, it was none of that nurse's business. She shouldn't get involved with the lives of random people just because she doesn't like something about it. Glad all went well.
Straight couples have babies by accident all the time. No gay couple has ever had a baby by accident. Which group do you think is more likely to be good parents?
Bruh your sexuality dosnt determine your abillity to raise a child. Plus gay couples biologicaly cant have "accidents" its not cause they are carefull lmao.
@@ivagrujic248 you missed the point. They're pointing out that a couple who's actively trying to have a child, whether or not through adoption or birth, are more likely going to be prepared parents. Their sexuality isn't the point, but they're pointing out that deciding a couple's ability to raise a child SHOULDN'T be based on the genders of the parents involved, and that gay couples looking to adopt shouldn't have half the stigma, especially when you consider how many hoops you need to jump through to do it.
My boyfriend was raised by two gay dad's and he's straight, he's in medical school, and a happy and well adjusted person. His father's are the best parents any child could ask for.
garybsg haha...loosing your job certainly does equate to being sent to a PRISON CAMP! Really?......Discriminatory personal opinions have no place in a health care setting. It is not a nurses business to tell someone who they should or shouldn't give their child too. You think there isn't a "wealth of research" totally contradicting what you seem to believe? Whether you or anyone else likes it or not, the LGBT community, like many other minorities, have progressed and are taking their place in this world. It is their home as much as it is yours, and they will continue to advance in all aspects.
garybsg Ffs why do you sad specimens always have to bring politics into what is simply a ‘doing the right thing’ situation?? That nurse most definitely should not have said that to this woman in her vulnerable state.......what a miserable human being you must be for not knowing that!
garybsg Just look around you, miserable pos; you’ll see many same sex couples doing a GREAT job of raising their children. The many I have encountered throughout my life are hard workers who put in the effective raise well-balanced, caring kids despite you saddoes making it more difficult for them....you creeps need to crawl back under your stones as your of no use to anyone.
This nurse completely broke code of conduct. Never should a nurse ask a patient about their personal business and trying to pursuade their own opinions on a patient.
I am so sorry you encountered this. As a nurse I apologize for the unprofessional behavior. I hope that your family has been and continues to be filled with joy and love. Parenthood is not easy but it is full of rewards.
I've always wondered about nurses who clearly don't like working with people. Being compassionate is my favorite part of nursing! Anyhoo, I'm so sorry you had to deal with her hateful ignorance especially during such a beautiful time for you and your partner. And I'm so glad that the rest of your experience was joyful.
I've been a nurse for many, many years and that wicked nurse clearly was out of line. I'm ashamed for our profession when one of "our own" behaves like that. I wish the best to the new dads & their son. May God be with them all.
What 'god' are you referring to? Certainly not he one true God of the bible. You are not fit to polish the shoes of that brave nurse who was concerned for the welfare of an innocent infant.
@@catmom1322 True. But I can only go by what you say. You have criticised a noble and courageous God-fearing nurse of whom you should be proud rather than ashamed. You really are perverse in your attitude without knowing it. You are not superior to her, just the opposite. Stop being a hypocrite and a traitor to 'your own', indeed the best type of your own, and for goodness sake humble yourself before the Lord. Stop judging her and start judging yourself or else you will one day come under God's judgement. This nurse was concerned for the future and welfare of an innocent infant. You are not concerned by flesh and blood reality but by political correctness, no matter how perverse it has become, and you dare to associate it with a blasphemous reference. to God's blessing.
William Bunter I knew it, you’re a religious extremist......your kind have caused so much damage to others, sad specimen. What brought you to this sorry state....have you had no love in your life?
I noticed there is a really vile troll calling himself "garybsg" who is really on a roll with his "comments" concerning this video. Garybsg, if you hate this video and gay people that much, then why in the hell did you watch it? Why don't you creep back under your rock and stay there? We do not care to read about your hate. Hate has no place in the comments on this video.
yet another case of religion poisoning humanity. my reasoning? give me a single non religious argument against homosexuality that hasnt been completely and utterly debunked. glad it worked out for your family :) dont let the h8rs keep u down
Daniel Newman 1-i think youl find that in the case of HIV/aids the higher percent in in straight couples. its just homosexuals made it "famous" when they couldnt seek medical treatment without being ostracized before people realized how stupid they were for ostracizing. as to any other std, if you dont wear a condom ofc your at a higher risk of catching an std. and homosexuals arent the only ones to have anal sex. 2. i dont see the relevance at all. even for a straight person you may like someone and theres no guarantee they will return the feelings. and with all the ways to meet people these days its pretty much certain if ur after a relationship youl find someone. how many dating sites, singles bars, "blind" or "speed" dating events are there now? 3. and for straight couples who cant conceive, they also have alternatives. i think you yourself have pretty much debunked your own point. 4. youl need to elaborate here. as far as im aware love is love. as mentioned above straight couples also practice anal, and a relationship isnt all about sex. in saying that- given the way the human male is structured, the shaft of the penis goes through the inside of the body in such a way that if something was inserted in the anus it would be akin to a form of mutual masturbation. so im failing to see your point at all here. 5.ill give you the benefit of assuming that was a joke :p ------------- my challenge stands, and the prize remains. a single un-refuted non religious argument against homosexuality. my next question to you then, because of your first statement- is something moral because god says so, or does god say so because its moral?
Daniel Newman few citations- www.who.int/reproductivehealth/news/stis-estimates-2015/en/ journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0143304 www.cdc.gov/std/stats14/std-trends-508.pdf
+garybsg any citations of the "data" you mentioned? Can you provide links to any studies, do you know of any peer reviewed reports to back up your assertions.
The picture at the end is so adorable! I wanna be part of a family like that one day. I hope they consider letting him have a brother or sister though. I'm a third child, I couldn't imagine having no siblings lol.
Andy, good for you guys! That took a lot of faith, courage, and determination for you and your partner! But now you have a thriving and happy son, it sure was worth it. Kudos to you guys!
Sorry, Sean, but all the modern research studies show absolutely NO negative effects upon children from same sex parents. You can Google that and see the numbers. Just as the recent Marriage Equality Act demonstrated: Love is Love. It's the love between the parents that is important on the lives of the children, not the genitalia. I can back that up with my 30 years of teaching over 7000 children. As far as bullying goes, we now have federal laws on the books to put an end to that nonsense. Society matures and gets educated eventually. Children are not born homophobic, adults teach that to them. As we as a society become more mature and more educated, homophobia will die a natural death. Education is the answer.
first of all, I don't know where you get your "modern" research because it is completely wrong because statistics actually do show that there are more psychological problems in kids who were raised by same sex parents as opposed to heterosexual parents. Secondly, I don't care what research you bring forth. It is a known fact that the kid will definitely live a tougher life and definitely have some sort of psychological issue that a normal child wouldn't have. You are right, children are not born homophobic but adults don't teach that either. It is part of human nature. Human nature tells us that men and women belong together and when something goes against our natural instincts we are definitely going to raise an eyebrow. Get it? It is natural and it is just unfortunate for the LGBT community that they are greatly outnumbered. That would be nice if homosexuality is accepted some day but in reality it will probably never be looked at as normal. You can't disprove science. Science of humans=reproduction. Gay=no reproduction
+Jake Anderson oh well since YOU said so then let's change the progress that this country is making and take away the rights of same sex parents to make Jake happy!
I am sorry for this! my husband and I adopted a baby boy ( unable to have kids) and it was a joyous occasion, , win/win for all of us! It happened fast, met the baby, 1 week later home with us.
That nurse should be ashamed. A mature and stable couple wants to give a child a new life. It's a beautiful thing. There are so many hetero couples and a lot of them end up getting divorced and mistreating their children but apparently that's 'normal'. Research has shown that all genders are equally good at parenting. That nurse better get some facts right.
The simple fact that the "nurse" put a woman who just recently gave birth in such a stressful situation is something unacceptable. I hope she got fired, since she's clearly not suitable to be a nurse. Nurses should give comfort to patiens, not stress.
I am not a person who gets disgusted by things easily. But what the nurse did... absolutely fucking disgusting. And christians say that they're discriminated against.
Grace Griffith I don't hate or dislike Christians. Much of my family and friends are chrisians. But that doesn't change the fact that virtually all homophobic people are extremely religious, and in the US a vast majority of them are Christian.
Oh I just stumbled across your video...I am delighted you got your son during adoption..you all look super happy..best of luck to your beautiful family. Love from Scotland 🏴
As the other half of a gay couple licensed to adopt and having experienced a similar episode by a hate mongering evangelical christian social worker I send our heartfelt congratulations for persevering. We prevailed for total of six adoptions and eventually got the bitch fired. Every one of our boys subsequently graduated from PhD professional schools and are living happy, productive lives.
85timotheus You're using your crazy book to justify your distrust and dislike of gay people. It gives you a shield from behind which you can be as bigoted and insulting as you like.
Sorry I'm not going to respond after this, your stubborn misguided bullshit is actually making me cross. God does not exist, he's a convenient way of getting people to obey by bribing them with heaven. Christianity was sold to slaves to make them content and resigned to their lot, no one of African descent should fall for it again.
85timotheus How fucking dare you. You know nothing about me, don't presume things when you have no basis for believing them. I've read the Bible tthrough a few times and I'm willing to bet you haven't. If you had you'd realise that the verses against homosexuality are right up next to the dietary laws, which I guess you don't keep. Why can Satan deceive and confuse humans? Can't god stop him? Is he more powerful than god? Surely nothing happens that isn't the will of god. So why does he allow Satan to make them sin and go to hell? Any way you look at it it doesn't make sense.
85timotheus Oh, I understand what the bible teaches, I just don't care. I'm an atheist so you probably think I'm the scum of the earth but I think my moral standards are superior to yours, going by what you've told me.
I apply for adoption in my country. Got rejected with the reason pedophile are not allowed to adopt kids. I said to them i am gay not a pedophile. They said oh ITS the same thing. IM leaving their office with so much anger.
I am a retired nurse manager, and I would have fired any nurse that pulled that crap. Even in 2015, she would have been fired and reported to the State Board of Nursing.
A nurse is supposed to make the environment as comfortable and pleasant as possible for a new mother before and after the pregnancy. How shameful of her. I'm glad they ended up with their son.
Damian thank God you two young men got to adopt this beautiful baby I hope things are going well for your family as for nurse ratchet I hope she lost her job. I do not wish good things to happen to that nurse ever in her life thank God you two guys came along at the right time God bless you and your family.
hassan abu bakr yousaf they are the same god. Jewish tradition Christian tradition and Muslim tradition all stem from Abraham. It’s the same god. But uhhh yeah leave the homophobia somewhere else please!
That nurse should mind her own business! 😠 She shouldn't be judging just because the Baby is going to be raised by two Caring and sweet guys, There's nothing wrong with a baby being raised by two men or two women. I wish People would respect that and get on with their own lives rather then butting in to someone else's business that has nothing to do with them. I wish these two sweet guys all the best of luck, love and Happiness 😄❤️
That child is very lucky to have such thoughtful parents and birth mom. I would love to see a follow up video, because that "baby" is now 5 or 6 years old, I think!
Imagine the kind of horrible person you have to be to harrass a woman right out of surgery ON THE DAY HER CHILD WAS BORN and try to prevent that child having loving parents by FEAR TACTICS.
When people arent pandering to public opinion like you were when you wrote that validation seeking comment, the nurse would have been promoted trust me 😅😅
What a fantastic, beautiful story. You will be beautiful parents. Thanks for posting. Hoping you learn and enjoy these beautiful years of rasing your son.
"Aren't you afraid that the boy wont be normal?" Look karen, im more afraid of the kid getting adopted by abusive monsters that are a mom and a dad than two amazing dads
I never got adopted. I grew out of the system at 18 and had to leave. Having two loving parents period, same sex or not would’ve shaped my life in indescribably beautiful ways I will never get to experience. In my eyes, anyone who prevents kids being adopted from loving parents is sick and vile. They’re withholding children from love and a family because of their own hatred and prejudice. How evil is that?
It's a crying shame that people are so darn judgmental!! It was not the nurse's place to judge!! I'm so glad that everything worked out for you two!! God bless!!
If anything, it should be the opposite. With a medical degree, she should know that being gay isn’t a choice so it’s not fair for gay people to be denied adoption rights for how they were born.
That nurse should lose her license. I am a prospective nurse days away from taking his NCLEX boards examination. Some of the more important questions that you must get right in order to pass boards are those that concern empathy and cultural competence. If she had chose those answers on boards as she did in real life she would not have passed.
I had to laugh at you comment about two boys who didn't know what they were doing. I'm a straight, married woman with a lot of support, did all the parenting classes and when we got home from the hospital the first thing my husband and I said was "what were they thinking sending a baby home with US?" If we could do it, so can you! Your moms advice was spot on. You got this! I hope you adopt more children (if you want) because you sound like great parents.
Donald trump almost passed a legislation where adoption could be biased towards lgbtq and companies could too. This makes me sick. I hope that when I’m older it will be safer for me and others. I’m scared of what people think. There’s too much hate.
I listen to these stories as a straight woman with growing up knowing my brother who came out in the 70 s Thank you for sharing your experience I listen..I don't know about others...but ..I LISTEN
I would have flipped my lid and the head of the hospital would have heard me. Then that nurse would be so busted and never get to work in the labour ward again or in any hospital again.
As a former nurse, I would demand that the nurse should be fired immediately. You never act that way to a patient. Not only is that extremely unprofessional, but it is homophobic. Just a thought~ if the nurse was treating a person that was gay, would she treat them to the best of her ability and give 100% as nurses always should do? Would she not treat a person that was homosexual with the same level of care, concern, love, sympathy? Shame on her.
Did you guys report that nurse and even sue the nurse? When things like this happen, people should say something and do something about it, no matter who we are.
It is really beyond me how a homophobe is not bothered by the fact there is literally millions of children in the care system but as soon as someone who goes against your beliefs tries to adopt a child (or more) then there is a problem. None of yous have ever cared about the well being of a child in the care system so why should any of yous get a say on where the kids go to? Simple answer, you don't.
So glad this story ended up well. Andy seems like such a sweet guy; his son is super lucky to have him as a dad....every bit as lucky as I am for the amazing father I have. I'm a 33 year old straight guy....but most of my male friends have been gay, and I LOVE gay culture. I'm incapable of understanding the hate these people received. It just makes zero sense to me. Then again, I am an atheist....and in my experience *_100%_* of homophobia is born of religion. Period. Luckily, the good news is that younger generations are ditching religion at an astonishing rate. In 50 years, religion will be over and done with.....finally. Much luck to this awesome family!
Sam Tkach literally said nothing about communism in that entire comment. But sure keep diluting that insult to the point where it just means a reasonable person Bc I’m sure that’s what u want.
Thanks you guys for giving a person a place to call home.guys are wonderful and make me proud to be part of a great community that most people don’t see in a lifetime.💛🧡💚❤️💙💜🌎☮️
What's really insidious is that this nurse waited until she was able to get the birth mother alone to start "working on her".
That's how bigots work :(
I know. That would upset most people, but she really didn't need to deal with that after she had just given birth
I’d slap her right across the face right there.

I am a 50 year old disabled Marine.
I also was a single father and raised my son in a loving home with a suppirtive family and although I know nothing about the gay, lesbian or any other lifestyles other then mine, I have seen many children who are the products of broken homes and I see nothing wrong with 2 loving adults raising a child together.

*THE TYPE OF DADS WE NEED*
This nurse literally harassed a woman who had just given birth. Setting aside the fact that this is grossly homophobic, I don't think this nurse is stable enough to fulfill the basic function of her job.
Agreed.
Yes she is. You're the one who's not stable. She had the guts to call out a woman who decided to give away her baby to a male 'couple'. No doubt she was well paid for betraying her baby to its fate.
@@williambunter3311 I'm curious what you think makes this a betrayal. Would you say the same about other people who choose adoption, or do you have some reason that two men in a loving relationship would be less equipped to raise a child?
@@williambunter3311 I assume you don't think it's abuse to have one father, so why would it be if you had two?
@@williambunter3311 Kinda pathetic if you can't even answer a stupid question, but alright.

Right could you imagine someone telling this child in the future the reason she wasn’t adopted was because some people thought that two dads wouldn’t be able to raise him correctly

When the nurse asked "aren't you afraid the boy won't grow up normal?" I would have said "I'd be more worried that they would grow up a bigot!"
Thomas Smith the synonym for a bigot is also homophobe my guy. Thats what came up as soon as i did what you asked lol
@Thomas Smith
Bigot
Noun
A person who is intolerant towards those holding different beliefs
Similar: dogmatist, partisan, racist, sexist, homophobia
Don't say for someone to look up the definition before doing so yourself
*homophobe
Thomas Smith i literally stated a fact, the synonym of bigotry is homophobe. A synonym is a word that relates, correlates, or means the same as another word.
Thats all.
So by text book definition, a person who believes that a person attracted to the same gender as theres is wrong or has prejudice towards a homosexual, can be considered a bigot.
Thomas Smith as someone who uses a dictionary to prove a point, your grammar is literally the worst ive seen. If you want to try and convey your point to me, i suggest you work on that with actual evidence instead of relying on insults. Have a great day!!
I grew up with gay parents and turned out pretty exceptional. Unfortunately my mothers dealt with a similar homophobic nurse situation. It's fulfilling to show them that they're wrong.
A. E. I’m sorry for what your parents went through, but at least that’s a cute family!
hi, im a person with alot of opinions yESS
A. E.
Eeeey I had gay moms too and I wouldn’t say I’m exceptional but at least I’m not a bigot. And they had problems regarding homophobia as well raising me and my siblings.
As a 15 year old homosexual boy I am often told that I will never live a normal life, these stories help me stay positive and strong. Thank you so much.
I suggest you talk to friends you trust about your homophobic surroundings. Make the right friends. Friends you wouldn't expect to make. It's really magical how much a good and open-minded friend can do to help and maintain optimism.
Listen man. I'm 19 and bisexual. My name is Jack. I just wanted to let you know that there are gonna be ignorant people but you are perfectly ok and just advising you not to be influenced by bigoted people who've chosen not to be tolerant. I wish you the best of luck finding love and having an amazing life!
I believe that one fact of being gay is that, in modern society, you can never live a "normal" life.
CharlotteNCJack Uh, yeah you can live a normal life. Society is more accepting now, and will be more accepting as society develops. Sexuality shouldn't determine whether you can or cannot live a normal life, and it depends on what you mean by normal.
+DonutAssassin No, in today's society you will always be marginalized and scrutinized by people. At the same time you will have people who love and care for you for who you are, yet you will still be treated differently. Your life won't be exactly normal, but different. Probably in a good way
As an adopted person I would like to express my disgust towards homophobic adoption policies and the people who enforce them.
r u lgbt?
+Mr Cocky
Does it matter? Having a straight child with two gay parents doesn't mean the child's views and opinions are automatically invalid.
Stop acting like lgbt is an exclusive group that only the "approved" few can get into.
Does it matter?
Y’all I think Calvin was just curious... I get what you guys are saying, but I truly think he/she was just asking a question. The truth is we will never change the world if we only answer questions as if they’re all insults. No “alternative relationships” will he accepted if we only get angry. Fighting anger with anger does not rid the world of anger. It simply makes anger more tolerable.
I was adopted and I’m 100% straight so dont Even start
I got adopted by a monster I would have been happy to get adopted by Two Loving fathers instead
What about a loving father and a loving mother, which is God's revealed will?
@@williambunter3311 you really missed the point of the comment. The point is that They would be happy with two loving fathers, never said anything about not a loving father and mother. It's god's will to give a child parents, whether that's two men, two women, a dad and a mum, a step dad and a mum, a step mum and a dad, a single mum, a single dad, foster parents, you name it. No matter who they are, god's will is for kids to have loving parents, even if they aren't always loving. I don't believe in God, but I have been to Christian school, so I know about Christianity somewhat.
@@gloriamcinerney7383 No, Gloria, you know nothing about 'Christianity somewhat'. Show me from the bible a single verse that champions same-sex marriage, 'parenthood', or homosexual relations' You will not be able to do so. Though if you look with the smallest degree of honesty and integrity you will find a multiplicity of prohibition of these sins. By the way, how can you state, as you do that god's will is for kids to have loving parents, and then in the very next statement say you don't believe in God? Confused much?
@@williambunter3311 Why are you here? Why do you feel it necessary to promote your religion? This video has nothing to do about religion, it's about homophobia.

@@gloriamcinerney7383 read my comment to him lol
Just seeing this. As a gay nurse, that nurse should have been reported. She violated so many many many laws, ethics. BTW we have four kids..All honor roll kids, all straight. 2 boys, 2 girls
That's awesome. I'm glad your doing well.
@Lauren L I think he's saying that they are normal, smart kids, even having gay parents.
@Lauren L bragging?:what did you drop out or something? You sound triggered bitch
@Lauren L What he means is, two astounding dads managed to raise four magnificent children.
@Lauren L good keep laughing lmaoo you still a hater
I adopted my son when he was 5. I was a single father, but the adoption went smoothly. A year and half later, I met my partner and I went from being a single dad to a couple who shared responsibility of this child. It was tough at times....especially when my son entered his teenage years, but my son never lied to his friends about having 2 dads. He was never ashamed of it. And now he just turned 23 and is serving in the US Army (He's currently in Afghanistan). We could not be prouder of the man he has become. Congrats on your adoption and you will find that there are more accepting people than there are ignorant fools. Enjoy your son! I'm sure he is loved!
C Zab How lovely.

Conservatives: Gays can’t raise children!
Also conservatives: *Raises a drug addicted, illiterate, hateful mess that has no critical thinking skills.*
Gays: *Raises badasses.*
I have two aunts, but I'm only related to one, the other is her partner. I spent A LOT of time with them growing up. I didn't realize until I was about 18 or 19 that they were lesbians. It struck me like a thunderbolt to the head. Being Pansexual myself, it didn't bother me. I was just surprised I didn't notice it earlier.
The point is I never questioned it, to me they were my aunts and since no one made a point of it and they didn't really say anything about it, I just automatically thought it normal.
Which leads me to this: Same sex parents can be seen as normal by their children. Sure, there might eventually be questions, but it's not all that different from any other question.
I think it's outside influences, example that nurse, or perhaps some priest or just someone who's homophobic, that make it not normal. They want it not to be normal because they're too ignorant to accept people for, well, being people.
Of course he was never ashamed of it. Between the two of you, you brainwashed the poor lad into thinking his situation was 'normal' or morally acceptable. And what the hell does a single man think he's doing adopting a child in the first place? Maybe one day you will be full of shame.
I am so sick of people turning away LGBTQ parents for adoption. Like okay so you would rather this kid have no parents then it have gay parents. It's just so sad.
@Patrick Cage Well that would imply they care about people's marriage or the children in question. They don't. They're just using it as an excuse to attack LGBT people. You can tell that because they never have anything to say on the matters of divorce or orphanhood outside of these specific circumstances.
Patrick Cage What? People can divorce if they want to. Why should they stay married if their relationship is so bad they think they should separate. Staying together wouldn’t be good for either of them and they would be much happier away from each other if it’s really that bad.
@Patrick Cage well maybe not for divorce, divorce was originally put in place so that women way back could get out of forced and abusive marriages
@Patrick Cage also why get rid of abortion? you don't know how a woman might have gotten pregnant, its her fucking body and if she wants to get an abortion(not past the second trimester) then she should be allowed to without any hate or backlash except for the possibility of medical problems following the abortion and orphanhood will always be here in humanity because people do die suddenly(car crashes, undetectable unstoppable health problems), there will always be orphans, whether we like it or not
@Patrick Cage I'm sorry but that's not how it works... You can't just "protest orphanhood" that doesn't get orphaned children out of an orphanage. You can't just protest against divorce/abortion that's a human right that should not be taken away, even when you don't agree with it
Nurse should be fired. She has no place imposing her views on a patient. The birth mom did the best thing given her situation. She should be commended for her bravery and selflessness.
If someone did this at any other job, they would be fired or at the very least reprimanded. It's a job.
Besides, most kids dont get into university and then turn out just fine. Get down off your rich ass soap box.
2lεgiϯܢ no the nurse was a bitch. The couple couldn't have a baby and she wanted to help. The kid is in safe hands. You're only saying this because they're both man but I bet if it was a heterosexual couple you wouldn't even be bitching. People like you always have something bad to say about same sex couples.
Starscream91 The kid is fine. He has great parents. The gender of their parents has nothing to do with how well their parenting is. This is coming from someone raised by a single mom.
@@aributera4905 And how do you know that the kid is fine? Perhaps you should read the research done by Mark Regnerus showing that kids raised in same-sex couples showing distress after learning that they have been used to promote adult's political agenda. Just because majority of psychological organizations that are connected with homosexual agenda say that children with gay parents do fine, it is not necessarily so.
@@samtkach5255 Kids aren't use for politcal agenda. You're acting as if all kids with same sex parents are studied. And I have read many studies. Kids with same sex parents who show distress report being bullied by their peers, this isn't the parents fault. Other studies shows that many same sex parents struggle with income
As long as they are loving who cares what genders they are?!
Exactly!
Exactly!!
Yeah!

Thousands of children need a home. Thousands... Our system is broken. We need loving people ready and willing to care for children. Ready and willing to love them unconditionally. Because let's face it not every hetero 2 parent house hold is loving or caring. I'd rather have 2 gay dads then the psycho adoptive mom I ended up with.
@Talitha Untono actually no I'm not I was lucky enough to be adopted. But the family I had broke and due to the system in place I was forced to live with an abuser. CPS was called and nothing happened. Cops were called and nothing happened. Every time I asked for help they decided not to do anything to actually help. And I was lucky. There are children that have it so much worse because there wasn't anyone willing to help. There are children now in a horrible situation because our system is broken and no one is standing up. Id rather been adopted by gay parents who loved me over the woman who ruined every moment of my childhood. No I'm not okay.
@@marzukrashid5673 I think they mean because of how they grew up.

Lollipopfop If you dislike gay people so much, then why are you watching a gay oriented video on RUclips?
The nurse should be given a medal of accommodation
David Rodgers But she DIDN'T accommodate. She was doing her best to screw up a perfectly legal arrangement. Legal. Civil. Constitution. It's hard only if you can't or won't read and compare.
MsSoundguy I think David Rodgers intended to say ".....a medal of commendation," which is entirely different. Sounds homophobic to me.
nothing wrong with two men raising a child just like single dads raise children perfectly fine. I rather have two loving dads over having a horrible life in foster care and facing the world alone at 18. If I was bullied in school over it I would teach them a lesson

I'm a psychologist. I'm not sure where you are getting your research from - the vast majority of research shows there is nothing damaging about homosexual parents. I'm happy to debate that with you, referring to actual evidence, if you want to? Also, I think you're sorely misunderstanding why this incident is being considered homophobic - and no, it's not just a case of 'disagreeing' with 'gays'. The nurse believed their homosexuality made them a risk to a young male child (I sincerely doubt she was saying to other mothers, 'watch your husband around your baby daughter. He might molest her'.) That is homophobic, and it could have lost them their child. There are no higher rates of paedophilia amongst homosexual men compared to straight men. If you can't see how her actions were far more than having an innocent disagreement with a gay person, and getting falsely accused of homophobia, you are both very blinkered, and lacking empathy.
It WILL end. This is the exact same type of hysteria that plagued us sixty years ago when interracial marriage was the big taboo of the country. There will always be haters, but they're doomed to become the minority
@@crazyhai8155 What about the study of Mark Regnerus? You see, your profession is being hijacked by gay activists therefore it almost impossible to find an unbiased research. Please, explain to me, how do you expect for a child to be happy when he learns that his biological mother has abandoned him for the sake of two unrelated men?
What a lucky little boy to have 2 loving dads.
I hope the mother filed a complaint with the hospital. No nurse should be speaking to her about her decision. You (and the mother) should consult a civil litigation lawyer. Sue the hospital AND the nurse .... the hospital should terminate the nurse.
For what? Trying to do what's best in the interest of children?
Sam Tkach Oh shut up. She’s not doing anything in the “interest of the children”- they don’t care. SHE cares.
@@samtkach5255 Having loving parents who want the child is what's in the best interest of the child. Some hospital nurse butting her nose where it doesn't belong isn't in anyone's best interest but her own self gratification.
@@dmnemaine it is always in the best interests to have children being raised by their biological parents. Hence, it's appropriate to ask if putting up children for adoption is the right decision, and nurses always ask those questions to both heterosexual and homosexual couples. There are times, when giving up children for adoption is the only way, depending on circumstances. There's no way of knowing that the nurse demeaned these men for their sexual orientation, hence it's only their assumption that they were being discriminated. If there was a man and a woman couple and the nurse , you wouldn't be having qualms about it. I see that gay rights activists want to have their irrational feelings to be the legal norm.
@@samtkach5255 Children who are put up for adoption do not have the luxury of being raised by their biological parents. Their best interest lies with their adoptive parents. Neither you nor that nurse had any idea what that birth mother's situation was. And no, nurses do not "always" ask those questions. Nurses are there for medical care, not social work. The birth mother had a social worker for that. None of anyone's business but the birth mother and the adoptive parents. And absolutely, positively, yes, I would have a huge problem with that nurse asking those questions in the case of a heterosexual couple adopting that little boy. Asking a vulnerable patient who has just given birth nosy questions about her decision regarding the adoption of the child is insidiously evil at worst and highly insensitive at best.
Seriously, it was none of that nurse's business. She shouldn't get involved with the lives of random people just because she doesn't like something about it.
Glad all went well.
I agree with everyone else. That nurse should be fired. And I too suspect a religious bias on her part.
I hope that nurse was reported! That is not okay!
I agree with you! That nurse should have been reported!
hah yes it is so stfu plsss
MrJuiceBerry okay in what way, bigot?
Straight couples have babies by accident all the time. No gay couple has ever had a baby by accident. Which group do you think is more likely to be good parents?

@@ivagrujic248 bisexual people: 👄
@@ivagrujic248 you missed the point. They're pointing out that a couple who's actively trying to have a child, whether or not through adoption or birth, are more likely going to be prepared parents. Their sexuality isn't the point, but they're pointing out that deciding a couple's ability to raise a child SHOULDN'T be based on the genders of the parents involved, and that gay couples looking to adopt shouldn't have half the stigma, especially when you consider how many hoops you need to jump through to do it.
My boyfriend was raised by two gay dad's and he's straight, he's in medical school, and a happy and well adjusted person. His father's are the best parents any child could ask for.
BEAUTIFUL FAMILY! Yeah, it's time for that nurse to be relieved.
garybsg haha...loosing your job certainly does equate to being sent to a PRISON CAMP! Really?......Discriminatory personal opinions have no place in a health care setting. It is not a nurses business to tell someone who they should or shouldn't give their child too.
You think there isn't a "wealth of research" totally contradicting what you seem to believe? Whether you or anyone else likes it or not, the LGBT community, like many other minorities, have progressed and are taking their place in this world. It is their home as much as it is yours, and they will continue to advance in all aspects.
garybsg Ffs why do you sad specimens always have to bring politics into what is simply a ‘doing the right thing’ situation?? That nurse most definitely should not have said that to this woman in her vulnerable state.......what a miserable human being you must be for not knowing that!
garybsg A wealth of evidence?!? Christ, now you’re resorting to lying....how hilarious 😂😂😂
garybsg Just look around you, miserable pos; you’ll see many same sex couples doing a GREAT job of raising their children. The many I have encountered throughout my life are hard workers who put in the effective raise well-balanced, caring kids despite you saddoes making it more difficult for them....you creeps need to crawl back under your stones as your of no use to anyone.
This nurse completely broke code of conduct. Never should a nurse ask a patient about their personal business and trying to pursuade their own opinions on a patient.
That nurse is awfull. She was mistaken taking that profession.
I am so sorry you encountered this. As a nurse I apologize for the unprofessional behavior.

give me a single non religious argument against homosexuality that hasnt been completely and utterly debunked.
glad it worked out for your family :)
dont let the h8rs keep u down
Daniel Newman 1-i think youl find that in the case of HIV/aids the higher percent in in straight couples. its just homosexuals made it "famous" when they couldnt seek medical treatment without being ostracized before people realized how stupid they were for ostracizing.
as to any other std, if you dont wear a condom ofc your at a higher risk of catching an std. and homosexuals arent the only ones to have anal sex.
2. i dont see the relevance at all.
even for a straight person you may like someone and theres no guarantee they will return the feelings.
and with all the ways to meet people these days its pretty much certain if ur after a relationship youl find someone. how many dating sites, singles bars, "blind" or "speed" dating events are there now?
3. and for straight couples who cant conceive, they also have alternatives.
i think you yourself have pretty much debunked your own point.
4. youl need to elaborate here. as far as im aware love is love.
as mentioned above straight couples also practice anal, and a relationship isnt all about sex.
in saying that- given the way the human male is structured, the shaft of the penis goes through the inside of the body in such a way that if something was inserted in the anus it would be akin to a form of mutual masturbation.
so im failing to see your point at all here.
5.ill give you the benefit of assuming that was a joke :p

my challenge stands, and the prize remains.
a single un-refuted non religious argument against homosexuality.

Eliza Hamilton lol I was gonna say that
The horror! The ones I get from my father are bad enough- I can't imagine having to deal with twice as many!
this joke actually became a dad joke and i love it
Homophobia is toxic, but thankfully LOVE wins over hate.
Andy, good for you guys! That took a lot of faith, courage, and determination for you and your partner! But now you have a thriving and happy son, it sure was worth it. Kudos to you guys!
Sorry, Sean, but all the modern research studies show absolutely NO negative effects upon children from same sex parents. You can Google that and see the numbers. Just as the recent Marriage Equality Act demonstrated: Love is Love. It's the love between the parents that is important on the lives of the children, not the genitalia. I can back that up with my 30 years of teaching over 7000 children. As far as bullying goes, we now have federal laws on the books to put an end to that nonsense. Society matures and gets educated eventually. Children are not born homophobic, adults teach that to them. As we as a society become more mature and more educated, homophobia will die a natural death. Education is the answer.
first of all, I don't know where you get your "modern" research because it is completely wrong because statistics actually do show that there are more psychological problems in kids who were raised by same sex parents as opposed to heterosexual parents. Secondly, I don't care what research you bring forth. It is a known fact that the kid will definitely live a tougher life and definitely have some sort of psychological issue that a normal child wouldn't have. You are right, children are not born homophobic but adults don't teach that either. It is part of human nature. Human nature tells us that men and women belong together and when something goes against our natural instincts we are definitely going to raise an eyebrow. Get it? It is natural and it is just unfortunate for the LGBT community that they are greatly outnumbered. That would be nice if homosexuality is accepted some day but in reality it will probably never be looked at as normal. You can't disprove science. Science of humans=reproduction. Gay=no reproduction
Sean McNuts You're wrong. They've legalized gay marriage in so many countries. More to come.
GMD D1sc what are you talking about? no one said anything about gay marriage. i said gay parents shouldn't be able to adopt kids
+Jake Anderson oh well since YOU said so then let's change the progress that this country is making and take away the rights of same sex parents to make Jake happy!
I am sorry for this! my husband and I adopted a baby boy ( unable to have kids) and it was a joyous occasion, , win/win for all of us! It happened fast, met the baby, 1 week later home with us.
That nurse should be ashamed. A mature and stable couple wants to give a child a new life. It's a beautiful thing.
There are so many hetero couples and a lot of them end up getting divorced and mistreating their children but apparently that's 'normal'. Research has shown that all genders are equally good at parenting. That nurse better get some facts right.
The simple fact that the "nurse" put a woman who just recently gave birth in such a stressful situation is something unacceptable. I hope she got fired, since she's clearly not suitable to be a nurse. Nurses should give comfort to patiens, not stress.
I am not a person who gets disgusted by things easily. But what the nurse did... absolutely fucking disgusting. And christians say that they're discriminated against.
Grace Griffith They didn't need to.
Grace Griffith I don't hate or dislike Christians. Much of my family and friends are chrisians. But that doesn't change the fact that virtually all homophobic people are extremely religious, and in the US a vast majority of them are Christian.
shlev im christian and i think what that woman did was disgusting as well
I'm bisexual and a Christian. Think again. 🐸☕
The beauty of that final picture says it all. One happy family.
Nurse Ratchet needs to go take a huge chill pill or a whole bottle forever.
Oh I just stumbled across your video...I am delighted you got your son during adoption..you all look super happy..best of luck to your beautiful family. Love from Scotland 🏴
What an incredibly lucky child. He will know unconditional love and acquire parenting skills, "From those 2 boys," I'm thrilled for all of you!
As the other half of a gay couple licensed to adopt and having experienced a similar episode by a hate mongering evangelical christian social worker I send our heartfelt congratulations for persevering. We prevailed for total of six adoptions and eventually got the bitch fired. Every one of our boys subsequently graduated from PhD professional schools and are living happy, productive lives.
+85timotheus Christians don't hate gay people? Review your comments so far and get back to me.
85timotheus
You're using your crazy book to justify your distrust and dislike of gay people. It gives you a shield from behind which you can be as bigoted and insulting as you like.
Sorry I'm not going to respond after this, your stubborn misguided bullshit is actually making me cross. God does not exist, he's a convenient way of getting people to obey by bribing them with heaven. Christianity was sold to slaves to make them content and resigned to their lot, no one of African descent should fall for it again.
85timotheus
How fucking dare you. You know nothing about me, don't presume things when you have no basis for believing them. I've read the Bible tthrough a few times and I'm willing to bet you haven't. If you had you'd realise that the verses against homosexuality are right up next to the dietary laws, which I guess you don't keep.
Why can Satan deceive and confuse humans? Can't god stop him? Is he more powerful than god? Surely nothing happens that isn't the will of god. So why does he allow Satan to make them sin and go to hell? Any way you look at it it doesn't make sense.
85timotheus
Oh, I understand what the bible teaches, I just don't care. I'm an atheist so you probably think I'm the scum of the earth but I think my moral standards are superior to yours, going by what you've told me.
I apply for adoption in my country. Got rejected with the reason pedophile are not allowed to adopt kids. I said to them i am gay not a pedophile. They said oh ITS the same thing. IM leaving their office with so much anger.
It is true. A gay couple just arrested because they were sodomizing and pimping their two adopted boys
All of the dislikes are homophobes. Don’t listen to the homophobes, they can’t tell you who you are.
Most dislikes are bots luckily.
Kenia Fart um... *WHY!?!?*
Kenia Fart well you can’t say I was wrong then 😏
Also I am Christian too, idk why u included that, but ok
Kenia Fart ya I know. I was right about the people who disliked the video.
@Kenia Fart Being homophobic isn’t disliking the person, it is disliking homosexuality in general.
Thank you for bringing tears to my eyes. As a single adoptive mother of w I know the joy of adoption. You made me smile!
I am a retired nurse manager, and I would have fired any nurse that pulled that crap. Even in 2015, she would have been fired and reported to the State Board of Nursing.
A beautiful family blessed with a beautiful son! My thoughts and prayers are with you always for your happiness!
A nurse is supposed to make the environment as comfortable and pleasant as possible for a new mother before and after the pregnancy. How shameful of her. I'm glad they ended up with their son.
Look it up a gay couple recently was arrested for sodomizing and pimping their two adopted boys
Damian thank God you two young men got to adopt this beautiful baby I hope things are going well for your family as for nurse ratchet I hope she lost her job. I do not wish good things to happen to that nurse ever in her life thank God you two guys came along at the right time God bless you and your family.
@@hassanabubakryousaf4841 amen.
@@hassanabubakryousaf4841 bigots gonna bigot.
hassan abu bakr yousaf they are the same god. Jewish tradition Christian tradition and Muslim tradition all stem from Abraham. It’s the same god. But uhhh yeah leave the homophobia somewhere else please!
That nurse should mind her own business! 😠
She shouldn't be judging just because the Baby is going to be raised by two Caring and sweet guys, There's nothing wrong with a baby being raised by two men or two women. I wish People would respect that and get on with their own lives rather then butting in to someone else's business that has nothing to do with them.
I wish these two sweet guys all the best of luck, love and Happiness 😄❤️
That child is very lucky to have such thoughtful parents and birth mom. I would love to see a follow up video, because that "baby" is now 5 or 6 years old, I think!
Imagine the kind of horrible person you have to be to harrass a woman right out of surgery ON THE DAY HER CHILD WAS BORN and try to prevent that child having loving parents by FEAR TACTICS.
Hope that nurse got fired! A child got a loving home, that's all that matters! Congratulations guys!
When people arent pandering to public opinion like you were when you wrote that validation seeking comment, the nurse would have been promoted trust me 😅😅
@JOYCE KEMP public begger shouldnt you be outside some shop scrounging pennies
Cheeze Smoker Well yes, the nurse would have been promoted. To patient. Or even better, to scraping off toenails for actual loving people.

Your mom sounds like a smart person. Congratulations on adopting your son and glad everything turned out fine in the end.
What a fantastic, beautiful story. You will be beautiful parents. Thanks for posting. Hoping you learn and enjoy these beautiful years of rasing your son.
"Aren't you afraid that the boy wont be normal?"
Look karen, im more afraid of the kid getting adopted by abusive monsters that are a mom and a dad than two amazing dads
I never got adopted. I grew out of the system at 18 and had to leave.
Having two loving parents period, same sex or not would’ve shaped my life in indescribably beautiful ways I will never get to experience.
In my eyes, anyone who prevents kids being adopted from loving parents is sick and vile.
They’re withholding children from love and a family because of their own hatred and prejudice. How evil is that?
They're giving a child a good life. Be fuckin proud of them
What a nice story! Thank you for sharing. :)
It's a crying shame that people are so darn judgmental!! It was not the nurse's place to judge!! I'm so glad that everything worked out for you two!! God bless!!
That last image... all three of them shining like stars!
That nurse should lose her license. The medical field is no place for prejudice.
If anything, it should be the opposite. With a medical degree, she should know that being gay isn’t a choice so it’s not fair for gay people to be denied adoption rights for how they were born.
That nurse should lose her license. I am a prospective nurse days away from taking his NCLEX boards examination. Some of the more important questions that you must get right in order to pass boards are those that concern empathy and cultural competence. If she had chose those answers on boards as she did in real life she would not have passed.
That nurse must be sacked. She does not belong in her current job.
I had to laugh at you comment about two boys who didn't know what they were doing. I'm a straight, married woman with a lot of support, did all the parenting classes and when we got home from the hospital the first thing my husband and I said was "what were they thinking sending a baby home with US?" If we could do it, so can you! Your moms advice was spot on. You got this! I hope you adopt more children (if you want) because you sound like great parents.
Donald trump almost passed a legislation where adoption could be biased towards lgbtq and companies could too. This makes me sick. I hope that when I’m older it will be safer for me and others. I’m scared of what people think. There’s too much hate.
Autumn come to Europe my friend here we have adoption rights!
had me in tears.. i really want to adopt.
Joseph Mulpeter i want to adopt as well, no matter who i end up with
So do I
What that nurse said breaks a tons of ethics rules.
What a lovely story, shame about the homophobic nurse.
What a beautiful story of courage and love. You and Driftwood are doing a wonderful public service.
I listen to these stories as a straight woman with growing up knowing my brother who came out in the 70 s
Thank you for sharing your experience I listen..I don't know about others...but ..I LISTEN
I would have flipped my lid and the head of the hospital would have heard me. Then that nurse would be so busted and never get to work in the labour ward again or in any hospital again.
homophobia is something that can end. homosexuality is not.
Yep! More than 450 species are homosexual, but only one animal is homophobic. Humans.
As a former nurse, I would demand that the nurse should be fired immediately. You never act that way to a patient. Not only is that extremely unprofessional, but it is homophobic. Just a thought~ if the nurse was treating a person that was gay, would she treat them to the best of her ability and give 100% as nurses always should do? Would she not treat a person that was homosexual with the same level of care, concern, love, sympathy?
Shame on her.
You brought tears to my eyes. Congratulations!
Did you guys report that nurse and even sue the nurse? When things like this happen, people should say something and do something about it, no matter who we are.
AWWWW - he is ADORABLE!!! (you even have a cute dog and nice house too - the works!)
It is really beyond me how a homophobe is not bothered by the fact there is literally millions of children in the care system but as soon as someone who goes against your beliefs tries to adopt a child (or more) then there is a problem. None of yous have ever cared about the well being of a child in the care system so why should any of yous get a say on where the kids go to? Simple answer, you don't.
They look so cute together. The kid looks so happy to be with them. May god bless them & their child 🙌❤
This is 5 years old, but still really high quality
I am so sorry a nurse treated the mother like that. I hope she got reported! I’m certain the two of you are amazing parents!
So glad this story ended up well. Andy seems like such a sweet guy; his son is super lucky to have him as a dad....every bit as lucky as I am for the amazing father I have. I'm a 33 year old straight guy....but most of my male friends have been gay, and I LOVE gay culture. I'm incapable of understanding the hate these people received. It just makes zero sense to me. Then again, I am an atheist....and in my experience *_100%_* of homophobia is born of religion. Period. Luckily, the good news is that younger generations are ditching religion at an astonishing rate. In 50 years, religion will be over and done with.....finally. Much luck to this awesome family!
I hope that communists like you don't seize political power.
Sam Tkach literally said nothing about communism in that entire comment. But sure keep diluting that insult to the point where it just means a reasonable person Bc I’m sure that’s what u want.
Good to see everything worked out. Beautiful Pic!!!
Why the fuck do some people have an issue with to loving dads wanting to raise a child
Two things,
HAPPY PRIDE MONTH
and
I was watching cats and cucumbers, how the fuck did I get here?
Thanks you guys for giving a person a place to call home.guys are wonderful and make me proud to be part of a great community that most people don’t see in a lifetime.💛🧡💚❤️💙💜🌎☮️
