I'd suggest you stay in school and finish English Grammar before you intend on bringing another life into this world.
Remember as a parent, you are responsible for that child's education as well as their being able to effectively communicate with others.
By your example here, I would be concerned.
Other than that...GO FOR IT!!
All children deserve loving, safe, caring homes!
Better you and your partner than any couple who would neglect, abuse or otherwise harm a child!

Well, It depends on where you live and what your values are. If you live in a state anywhere but New England you may find trouble if/when you try to adopt. In Massachusetts there are laws against not allowing a gay couple to adopt, other states can stop you from adopting as a couple or even as a single. It's also quite expensive to adopt, but of course you should be able to provide for a child, it also takes years - where giving birth with all the pre-treatments would take about a year. If you don't live here it would be easier for either you or your partner to carry a child. If that's the case than all you need to do is decide which of you will give birth and find some sperm! You can either go through cryo banks (most ship nationwide) or find a willing friend and use the steryotypical "turkey baster"
Good Luck!

if you want to adopt i suggest going over some adoption agencies and see which of them approve gay couples as adoptive parents. some of the agencies have special requirements such as you have to have been together for a really long period of time and stuff like that. if you really want to adopt start early because it really could take years especially for a gay couple.
to pink mafia: if a child has same sex parents that doesn't by no means mean that they wouldn't get influence from both men and women. they can have a very close family friend or and uncle or an aunt to be around the child so they get to be around both sexes.

All depends on the state you live in as to what the laws are. When we started talking I spent all nite on the internet comparing laws for our home states and Ca.
One thing I do suggest is look at your finances first and see if you would be financialy able to adopt, because it is not cheap. Yahoo adoption laws.

if your both good people and raise your children right i cant see where this could be bad. there are lots of children stuck in the system that deserve loving homes. some groups would rather these kids suffer than be adopted into non traditional homes.

It's sad to see that someone gave Die Gays! a thumbs up. Such hate...
Anyway, with your situation I'm not quite sure what the hell you're asking me. If adoption or natural birth is good? I think adoption is fine. I don't really think it'd be necessary to put sperm into one of you but you could go that route too.
I suggest that you adopt.

Children need the dynamics of both a mother and father. Shame on you for wanting to short change a child. Fortunately, there are few children available for adoption. This is why parents go to China and other countries. That cost about $50,000.
One of you can have a child naturally, however it can never be both of yours. Plus you will have to realize that at anytime the real father can challenge you to take the child away.
The choice you made in your life prevents you from having children, and that hole you feel can never be filled with a child. Get the help you need.

Well hopefully if you went to an adoption centre then you could apply there, dont know if it is legal where you are. Hopefully it is. Hopefully you overcome any problems!

I think you should just go for it and see what happens. If you follow your heart the good will come.
