Andreas turned to me last night and, out of the blue, said he wanted to have kids. It was really great that I could show him the part 1 video, and I’ll be sure to show him this one as well. I’m not sure I’m ready to have kids, but at least we can benefit from your experiences. =)
Please, don’t worry about time!
It’s much more important to address every pertinent issue, than to squeeze into some time frame. It’s not television, right?
We are happy to see you longer and more often!
I think Jay & Bryan adopted both kids at once, as one package, so to speak.
That was the idea: to keep the siblings together. This is how the system works: if there are siblings, you can’t adopt only one of them, they go in one package; if 1 year later no one adopts them together, they and can be adopted separately.
I’m transgendered so I’m guessing its close to impossible for me to adopt….. Sucks cos I’ve always wanted to have children, I’m still 18 but I think knowing that I can’t have them biologically or through adoption makes my maternal instincts (yes we have them too) go crazy.
So wait, when you adopted your second child, did you have to do the process all over again?
It really angers me that you are such great parents, to know that you successfully qualified to be adoptive parents, all the things you went through, and yet people voted for Prop 8 and now your marriage is on the limbo. It’s just not fair!!!!
Oh & if you’re going to kiss at the end, don’t do it like you’re forced to, it has to be natural (just saying)
You’re a super cute couple
LOL the kiss was more out of teasing bryan… I didnt exspect him to be so unatural about it… LOL just kidding
No Selena and Danile are Brother and Sister we adopted them at the same time. If we where to adopt a third child then we would have to restart the process.
You know im not sure?
I think a lot would depend on where you live and if you find the right adoption agency. I cant imagine in a state like CA there would be rules against you adopting.
lol thank you. We get a lot of comments about the length of our videos. I just dont want to rush thru the video and leave stuff out or feel like we didnt tell the story wright.
Thats very cool. The main reason we are making these movies is to let people understand that it is possible if they want to be parents that it isnt just a dream. Just make sure you are ready when you do it. You will Know :O)
Yes we adopted bolth kids at once. They are brother and sister. If we where to adopt a third child we would have to start over. but most of the hard work is already done.
LOL you need to be a social worker
About paperwork and everything else.
People, of course it feels intrusive and unfair, but in this case I absolutely support these measures, because they were not introduced to make fun of people or to insult & humiliate them. These rules PROTECT CHILDREN from abusive people, from those who don’t understand how hard can it be, who don’t realize they are not ready, but most importantly, they protect children from child molesters & all sorts of crazy people. And this is much more important.
LOL Bryan was teased indeed. It was a nice kiss, don’t get me wrong
you two don’t look gay enuff
Well it doesn’t help that I live in Malta (in Europe), so it won’t happen here, but I’ll be leaving this place asap!
Great video guys
i want to adopt someday and these videos are great! my girlfriend doesn’t want to adopt. =/ im working on it.
Thank you for these videos! Looking to adopt in the near future !
Not sure what that means?
I agree with you a 100% I think all the precations that are in place are for very good reasons. Its a lot of work but the end results are so worth it.
It means you could easily pass for straight guys.
You don’t look too effeminate or flamboyant.
And I for one was pleasantly surprised about that!
That’s very nice guys, the informations are very helpful. In the future I might consider adoption also , now I have a clue what’s it’s like, thanks.
Also what a great couple you are, I can feel the love you have for each other .
You are very inspiring, good job.
What if you do have a dungeon and a sling? LOL!!!! I swear, I burst out laughing when Bryan said that!! LOL!!
The paperwork looks intense. I know you’re talking about the California adoption process, I’m betting the Irish one is different but along the same lines, but it’s great to get all this info. You’ve certain answered some questions I had.
Your Irish pal,
Paul.
Hello friends, Toni and I are following your videos on youtube. We love the ease and detail of information from your experiences in the adoption process. Thanks again. We wish you a Merry Christmas.
