		<description>Eva here&#039;s where you&#039;re being misleading.
&quot;could be legally recognized as the boyâ€™s third parent.&quot;

It only takes 2.

Should we really create laws to be in place, people&#039;s own personal decisions go bad, so that they don&#039;t have to deal with them? Boy, I can&#039;t wait for all the laws to cover all the non-homosexual related bad decisions people make.

blah blah.... go spin someplace else.</description>

		<description>Andy, you are being misleading here.  Here&#039;s the situation:  

In a ruling released on Tuesday, the Ontario Court of Appeal said the female partner of the child&#039;s biological mother could be legally recognized as the boy&#039;s third parent.

The biological father, named on the boy&#039;s birth certificate, is a friend of both women and is taking an active role in the child&#039;s life.

&quot;It is contrary to (the child&#039;s) best interests that he is deprived of the legal recognition of the parentage of one of his mothers,&quot; Justice Marc Rosenberg wrote in the ruling, which did not name the three parents or the child.

&quot;Perhaps one of the greatest fears faced by lesbian mothers is the death of the birth mother... Without a declaration of parentage or some other order, the surviving partner would be unable to make decisions for their minor child.&quot;

The two women, who have been together since 1990, told the court they did not want to adopt the child because it meant the father would lose his status as a parent.

EY:  A committed lesbian couple - and the biological father of the kid all having a role in the kid&#039;s life.  This would be like a remarried couple where the parent and step parent have rights, plus the biological other parent.  This is NOT polygamy.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m afraid those Canucks have finally lost it.  God bless America and that poor child.  Think of how spoiled he will be in a three-income household!</description>
