and imagine. . .

Children growing up in a 2 parent household with loving parents who respect
one another and their children; teaching them how to have healthy
relationships and respect others. Oh. . . and the parents are the same
gender. We should all be so lucky to be raised in such an environment.

But . . . the parents have no legal rights as a couple -and what does THAT
do to the children?
