My only question is how do the children of these couples deal with the eventual critics/teasing that will eventually come from other children (and very naive adults) along the way? I just wonder what the percentage is of these kids ending up psychological issues are.

Didn't mean all Matt the gist of my point is that nearly all of them are in the game becuase they want to be and go to great lengths to be. And you make a great point about psychological issues but then again how many children in general are going to have issues when they realize that there are really winners and losers in the world, no partcipation trophies and mommy and daddy can't fix all their problems.

I remember when I was in grade school being embarrassed of my parents, but I think that's just all kids when they are young. I see it now with Little Matt and he's only 9. It's just a stage most kids go through, now throw in the gay wrench in and it probably magnifies it greatly. Like I said before, kids are ruthless and don't think before they speak (actually I know a lot of adults that do that too). They also gang up on the weak link and I'm afraid that some of these kids will constantly get picked on throughout their school years because they have 2 mothers or 2 fathers.

I have a gay cousin, her and her partner have a child. He's a cute kid, but I just wonder how he's going to be in the future.

I know most of these kids are loved greatly. Eventually one day down the road they will realize and appreciate the love and support their parents gave them, but I do worry about everything that happens in the middle of that time.
