Alan O’Brien-Myers is a rising senior at Holyoke High School in Massachusetts, where he lives with his two moms and younger brother. He posted on Bilerico today in response to John McCain’s statement that he doesn’t believe in gay adoption. He says, in part:
What’s not to believe in? Many gays and lesbians adopt children and create wonderful, loving families. My moms adopted me out of foster care when I was eleven years old. I’m seventeen now. I love my family. My moms provide for me in all the ways that other parents provide for their children. We have our problems just like everybody else, but in the end we take care of each other. We believe in each other.
What we don’t believe in is John McCain and any other politician who is out of touch with the reality of American families.
