Not my personal choice. Thank God it was St. Joseph’s. Adopted fathers are biblically sanctioned and revered because it takes guts and patience few men possess.

My step-dad is fucking awesome. He literally spent 16 hours with me in a car as we drove to Texas so I could attend my first con with an artist alley table, then flew back in and drove back home with me.

That’s an adopted father who loves you.

Who is hating on adoptive fathers? That implies the biological father is out of the picture which is better than having some brat reply "you aren't my Dad" when you try to discipline them. If you adopt them you actually are. Still not the choice I'd make though.

Adoption is one of the key aspects of the gospel. Our Lord has taken us as part of his family, adopting us as his children.

Being a stepfather in that kind of situation is an admirable thing. In my peer group there's too much "my girlfriend cheated and got pregnant by another guy but I'm thirsty for her so I'll put up with the kid" going on. It's not any genuine affection or concern for the kid.

/2 The later isn't the norm, but it's more prevalent than the former in the set of people I personally know. I only know one guy who adopted his wife's kid. The most prevalent thing is avoiding women with kids like the plague.

My step daughter hates me. I didn't have a chance because she was already 13 when I married her mom. I tried hard to have a good relationship with her but she just didn't want anything to do with me. All I can do is treat her mother good and hope she comes around when she's older

Sometimes love is VERY patient.
