This book is a collection of twenty-four personal stories of gay men who have become fathers, primarily through adoption and foster-adoption, but also through surrogacy and co-parenting. Told without embellishment and often in the words of the fathers themselves, the stories in this book will both warm your heart and break it. The men profiled here are both partnered and single, and come from a range of backgrounds. For all of them the road to fatherhood was beset with challenges large and small, and sometimes tragedy as well. Yet all have faced not only the obstacles to becoming a gay father, but also the hard work of fathering once the children arrive.
