Kanopy Video - Fatherhood Dreams

Fatherhood Dreams

Fatherhood Dreams takes the audience into the day-to-day lives of Scott, Steve, Randy and Drew, who are fathers through SURROGACY, CO-PARENTING and ADOPTION. Their private journey through fatherhood forces them to deal with much larger issues, including the legal aspects of surrogacy, the complexity of "open adoption", and the battles concerning the official recognition of multi-parent families

Kanopy VIdeo - Choosing Children

Choosing Children

CHOOSING CHILDREN dramatically challenged the assumption that being lesbian means you can't be a mom. Six lesbian-headed families make decisions about how to become pregnant, navigate the process of adoption, whether to involve men in parenting, and address reactions from relatives, doctors and schoolmates.
