You have to fd the path to parenthood that's right for you. It's extremely expensive: adoptns are thoands of dollars while surrogacy is triple that amount.

You have to fd the path to parenthood that's right for you. It's extremely expensive: adoptns are thoands of dollars while surrogacy is triple that amount. You really go through a lot and that's why gay, bi and trans men really make a ncentrated effort to bee dads. That's the difference between and (some) heterosexual parents. It's often taken for granted while for LGBTQ+ members, 's much more difficult.</p><p class="css-aeyldl et3p2gv0">If you want to bee a parent, but don't make the necsary e for thgs like adoptn and surrogacy, you n foster to adopt.
