Yes - that’s what a lot of people don’t get.

I was orphaned at 9 and wound up a ward of the state. I was lucky enough to have a lot of people looking out for me as kid - but I would have killed to be adopted by anybody who would love me.

Two parents, one of each sex, is the ideal for me - but you can’t always get the ideal. We’ve got to find the best available solutions, not just the perfect ones.

I think there’s a lot of empathy.

Kids in foster care are treated like lepers socially and in some ways, so are lesbians. It could be that the lesbians understand this and adopted him so he has someone to call family and some place to call a home. It’s not ‘ideal,’ but in life some times we need to take what good we can get out of this very painful world.
