My friends, this whole thread is depressing me. It is just not fair that GLBT couples should face such obstacles to growing their family.
However, I do have a bit of hope to offer:
You are all welcome here in Massachusetts
Come to Massachusetts. You can get married. You
can enjoy all of the (state) protections of marriage. You
can adopt your babies as a married couple. (I know that our local DCF office is very welcoming to GLBT couples and if you are willing to take a risk, you can adopt a baby - I'm working on my second adoption through DCF). The best benefit of all - you can raise you children in a state that recognizes you as a family - equal to all other families.
There - that's my rant for the day.
Good luck.
