Foster care and adoption and same-sex parents. Even though marriage is legal for everyone, and there is still debate, I feel that the battle over same-sex parenting will go on for many many more years.
The group One Million Moms has voiced its concerns in the past, but this time has decided to target a young wonderful 11-year old girl, her family and "American Girl" magazine.
Rob Scheer told WTTG on Monday that as a gay man with four adopted African-American children he expected a certain amount of criticism. But he was shocked because the attack came from a group of “moms”.
“These were moms! These were moms that were saying that my family was wrong, that the love that my husband and I are giving our four kids and what we’re doing was wrong,” Rob recalled. “I would expect moms not to say these type of things about our family.”
“But at the same time, these are a ‘million moms,’ they could really be helping the 364,000 kids in foster care,” he pointed out. “This is our family and it works for us. And you know what? We have four amazing kids that we adopted out of foster care. These are four kids that have fulfilled our life more than we ever thought.” – rawstory.com
Bravo to these two wonderful men for making a house and a home for these children. Bravo to this young girl for being a role model for her peers. And bravo to this WTTG reporter for being so good in this interview.
One Million Moms, you're doing the wrong thing. Luckily there are real moms and dads out there that know how to parent and are doing a much better job than your collective.
Keep up the good work Rob and Reece!

Instead of “One Million Moms”
Instead of "One Million Moms", they should be referred to as "One Million Bitches", because they have nothing else better to do than to try and shame people.
By the way, I'm so glad that Rob and Reece exist because they show you that same-sex families are just as vital and important as heterosexual families.
What I see are 70,000 women
What I see are 70,000 women who are SCARED TO DEATH that one of their kids might have the nerve to humiliate them in front of their stuffy, bigoted friends by mentioning that he's gay. Oh, the horror!
Of course, we already know that don't we?
First off, they are only
First off, they are only named One Million Moms – but they are actually about 70,000 bigots and have nothing better to do than rile up people.
