Maybe the kids are related hun.

Maybe the gay couple lived in areas that were predominately black and it influenced their decision.

The races of each child shouldn't matter. 

If im not mistaken, the girl actually came last. I remember them posting a "our family is now complete" type of post.  I've sort of been followed these two in the past.

Aww its nice to see a gay couple with kids. Not for me though but its sweet

Is it okay? Yes

How do I feel about it? It's off putting. I feel like as parents we sometimes have to use our better judgement and separate what's best for us, from what's best for our kids. This was for him and his lover with no regard for the light the kids will now stand in. Two white dads with black sons who are encouraging them to kiss is not going to go well on social media. You have to know this as an adult with common sense. So the only reason for posting this IMO is to make a social statement or low key bait for a reaction (because you know you're getting one). If it was merely about love you would have enjoyed your private moment, and be content with not subjecting your children to public shaming on social media. What ever positive feedback or new normal dad of the year award he received isn't worth the spotlight  that is now place on his kids and family. The trade off isn't worth it and I would protect my kids from social media trolls.

i totally get what you mean, but in fairness to them, i doubt anyone is attacking the children.

I can agree with this.  They probably posted this to make some sort of statement. i do like that the kids are in what is seemingly a loving environment that promotes qualities that alot of people lack. People are so quick to gripe about bullshit
black bbys tossed with any ol person
Like
What's the alternative? Them living their life in the system until theyre tossed into the street once they hit 18. Who gives a fck about what color someone is? These men opened their home and hearts to these kids but yea,  let's focus on them being white and the kids being black idiots tbh

!!!!! mind boggling. really

[b7]

While we are conditioned to believe this weird or even immoral, I am not mad at this at all. As long as everyone is happy and healthy.

!!!! i agree with Yummy in general, cuz its obvious that some celebs and some white people (among others) use black kids as accessories,
but i dont get that vibe here, thank God.

[b7]

as if these bbys are going to read those instagram posts nnn gyn does too much. this post has only 40 comments.

The Internet is forever! Just because they don't reconize now doesn't mean they wouldn't later. Hateful people know their faces!

ok, and i would hope they're raising these kids to have minds of their own and to rise above the hate, lashing and impending teasing. ALL kids deal with it in some way and they're pretty much predisposed whether this vid continues to circulate or not i dont see any added trauma on the horizon here. It'll be lateral at best  a wash, basically. They're gonna deal with ignorance until they're dead and gone, but the love they're being raised under and around can pay off big time.

Shielding them or even putting them through independent study wouldn't help at all.

[b7]

I know people are gonna freak out about this.  White men, black bbys, and gay love, something's coming.  I couldn't care less. If kids were exposed to this real life shit earlier like this,  everybody wouldnt be such a damn bigot. Every family is not the traditional family. If this were a man and his wife no one would care.  Someone is definitely gonna fume tho

!!!!!!!

people just need to see it more until its not seen as weird and gross...

agreed. including some of us 

[b7]

Kids are impressionable. And even if it were a mom and dad they should not be laid up in bed kissing with their kids laid up with them.

And little Tyrone chanting "more" disturbed my soul

sdsdddsddfdffffggf i didn't quite catch that, but aww



luv this, still. i think

[b7]

but part of me feels like that lil boy smudging their heads together is gonna turn out gay by what he's being exposed to.

f

Yeah like all the fags on here who were only exposed to heterosexual relationships that grew up to be strai....oh wait

   

woops. lolz

[b7]

ssssssd

yeah because hairstyles that 90% of little black girls sport anyway is a testament of them being #WOKE and opened minded

we all know white gays are the most tolerant of them all!

i'm not trying to take anything away from them as parents, i'm just saying i HOPE they're decent people.

!!!!!

n

honestly ALL of you have made very valid/solid arguments. Like you, I just wanna believe they're good people. period.

More zadii!!
