Yaay,
It’s back to school time and I am ready to flow….boo. I mean not only have I had to run around to make sure that my son is in order for his first day of school but I’ve been discussing the closing chapter to my education as well.

from wikiHow – The How to Manual That You Can Edit
You want to adopt a child, but you are gay. Can you still adopt? Read on to find out how a gay couple or single parent can adopt a child.
Steps
- Ask first and make a clear, joint decision. Ask your partner if children are wanted. If not, don’t go through with this – the decision to have children must be unanimous.
