Gay Fathers

Let's see
3 children. Two daughters age 6 and 10. A son age 16. All adopted. My girls are actually sisters and my son is the biological child of two close friends whom died in a car accident. Never thought of being a father it all of just happened. Would never trade any of them. Okay maybe the one that takes after me.

My name is Duncan, I have a 25 year old son that I raised pretty much on my own. Being a Dad is the only important thing I will ever do on this planet, and as tough as being a single parent seemed at times, I wouldn't trade my life and experiences with my child for anything. Today I am blessed to have a wonderful man for my partner (I met him while my son was in college) and even more blessed that my son considers him to be part of our family. My son graduated from Depaul University College of Law this past spring and both of his Dads shed some tears watching him walk across the stage and accept his diploma. He works for a law firm now in Chicago which feels like a long way from where we are (we live in North Carolina) and has become a fine young man but he will always be my little boy. When I look back all I can think of are the many things I should have done better but it's nice to know that I must have done some things right.
Over the years I've been called a lot of things but nothing sounds sweeter to my ears than being called Dad. -

Hi All.
Just thought I would post to this.
I became a single farther very unexpectedly and was left with two very young boys to bring up by myself.
It was one of the most stressful but amazing periods of my life and helped me not only bring the boys up to be well adjusted and funny kids but also helped me learn about myself and who I am. Ten years down the road one is off to uni and the other still at school we are a very happy and close family unit, I have always found the best way was just to be honest and open with them but never to try to push any of my beliefs to hard as they will in the end always go there own way, there have been many bumps along the road and some very nasty comments from so called friends and other “Normal” parents at there schools but I have always hit them face on and never hidden away. And as my eldest is now becoming an adult I look back and think was it worth it all I can say is “Yes” and I would do it all over again and again the rewards are so great and the all the other stuff from society well who cares.
I feel so blessed to have had the opportunity and good luck to anyone out there doing the same just try to hang onto your sanity lol. :cheesy2: -
Hi guys.
I'm 26 and I'm not a father.
But all of you, sweethearts, stop raising my paternal instinct.;D
(just joking)
