Fairly normal and typical.
I say this as a parent and a lesbian.
My son is my biological child, I have raised him from the moment he took his first breath and carried him in my womb for the nine months previous.
My partner and I have raised him together since he was very young. He's known his father, as we were married when he was born, but our marriage didn't last. My partner came in a few years later and my son has respected her as another parental figure ever since.
He knows his father, has a relationship with him, but a strained one. This is NOT because of my relationship with his father or even my relationship with my partner, but rather because his father has chosen (whether conciously or not) to not be as big a part of his son's life as even I would have liked.
My son has suffered no bullying, no being picked on or harassed for having "two mommies." He's a well adjusted, well liked, out-going young man. He's active in social and school activities, played football for a couple of years, does well in school, has a number of very good friends (who are good kids too), and is generally one of those kinds of kids everyone seems to get along with.
The fact that he has "two mommies" simply isn't an issue, either with his friends or even their parents...as we're all "involved" parents and have gotten to know each other through our children's friendships.

properly some distance as i be attentive to my mum and dad have been str8, yet there is a few doubt approximately my old guy. (he used to vanish for days at a time). same as blonde mum and dad elevating a pink-haired newborn, or trustworthy skinned mum and dad elevating a gloomy- skinned newborn. The fundie crowd write articles claiming that little boys who the two have an abusive father or no father in any respect prove gay, yet i've got met quite some gay men who've large relationships with their dads. Oh, we've a monkey in the White living house simply by fact the monkey's handlers have been clever adequate to get him to lie like h*ll to the religious crowd. same with Huckle-greenback & McCain. same zookeepers, distinctive monkeys.

I don't quite follow where you are going with this, but as far as my family were concerned I won't lie and tell you everything was fine and rosy when my parents found out about my sexuality, but my parents came to realise that although my life had changed it had far from gone down the tubes and in fact I have been able to live a fuller more rewarding life as a result of being able to be honest with them.

Living in California for as long as I did, I know several gay couples whom either adopted or had their own children.
The children of the couples are not gay.
They are well adjusted, loving, respectable people.
Hope this helps.

I was raised in a lesbian household and it is the most wonderful family any person could ever hope to have.
