Thanks ladies

I wouldn’t risk it either, same as Adrian. These men or women that have their children taken by the other parents usually do carefully plan leading up to the child’s conception and birth, they believe they equally respect each other, and are assured complete honesty amongst all parents. Yet this still happens. These men didn’t see this coming. It shouldn’t have happened. It wasn’t fair to them or the child. You can prepare all you like, but you can’t see the future and unfortunately that costs some parents far more than they first realised and some people aren’t who you think they are or have a different idea all their own. I’m very saddened that nothing protects all parents and the child/ren. I would never consider coparenting. It’s so much work and can completely back fire just like it did for this couple and many couples before them; and probably many couple after.

Stuart if you don’t know why a gay man wants a child should not be a problem. Not everybody is able to understand everything. Unfortunately it is just a bit sad for you.

What bubble do you think that is Jess? Please enlighten me.

Exactly what I was going to day Noosh

Stuart, try getting out of your bubble once in a while.

Maybe Noosh, but are you willing to take that risk yourself? Look at what happens when heterosexual parents break up and have custody battles. Then add 1 or 2 other parents and their own motivations and agendas, and you have a high-risk situation

Yeah.. It can work. Takes careful planning and respect. Something anyone considering a family should have really.

Because he is a man?

Why would he not? Why would a straight woman want children? I don’t think a desire to nurture offspring is necessarily linked to one’s sexuality,so to me the question is a bit like “why would someone with blue eyes eat sushi?” they’re just not related factors.

Some men (whether gay or not) do want to have a child/children. People whether single or partnered and regardless of sexuality sometimes do what to have a child to start a family.

Because some men want children. I doubt sexuality has anything to do with it. Some straight men want kids, others don’t just like both lesbian or straight women do or don’t want children

How did you read that from my posts? Seems you’re the dumbass.

So just because you don’t want kids mean all gay men don’t want kids?

Not always, sometimes it works really well.

Jason you sound like a wonderful father and your children surely are blessed to still have you in their lives! I feel so saddened by the thought that any parent would stop the other parent from seeing their children due to separation and/or sexuality. Very sad, definitely no winners.

So you are all just assuming that I’m an ignorant hetero. Well I’m actually an out gay man and I have no desire to reproduce. But the responses I received just went to show how many of you fit the stereotype of bitchy queens.

Why would a straight man? Or a trans man? Or a straight woman? Or a gay woman?
Or someone who doesn’t fit a gender or sexuality?

Dumbass.
