    I saw this too, before it was deleted.

    I'm sure you will make a lovely father one day, but you need to grow up a lot first. Enjoy your young adulthood, gather all the wonderful experiences you can under your belt as a young person in a happy relationship with good job etc. Travel the world, expand your career and your mind - all these things will benefit your future child in lots of wonderful ways.

    They wouldnt have posted it if they hadnt seen it somewhere on here, you seem to want to challenge what you said in an earlir post, they can just as easily go back and copy and paste your post on here.

    I welcome anyone to go back and copy and paste this as you say , oh yeh I forgot they can't as it was never posted , please do try and find this supposed post

    I consider my self a fairly even handed person, I haven't looked at past posts, but I do remember the thread discussed. OP, it certainly came across that way in that thread....and your post was moderated....I only saw it in a quote...so abuse/board guides must have deemed it worthy of deleting. So it might be worth considering that your communication skills might need some work before fostering/adopting :)

    OP, I am a childless woman in a heterosexual relationship. One of our closest couple friends are gay men and would make excellent parents. so this is not a post made from not understanding the pain of childlessness nor from an anti gay stance: but I suggest you think carefully about the reaction your posts have caused and the skills you ight benefit from enhancing before thinking about how to change your family.

    As for childlessness its self, when you want to parent, it IS heartbreaking. I long for my husband's child often: but its not going to happen for us. we very seriously considered fostering, but felt for various reasons it wasn't for us. Sometimes I longingly read the adoption pages. I am beginning to accept that I am not likely to be a parent, and its not nice. But life deals us the cards we have...there are other plus points.

    Fostering or adoption are worthwhile, and its worth thinking about instead of WAITING a few years start preparing now, for a few years. Same difference but what a difference in outlook and preparedness.

    when I looked into fostering the agencies said they really would like to see a years voluntary work in a related environment (they suggested the guides or similar to me). The courses also take a year or so. why not start this now and then start looking into it in the future, if nothing else you'll have time to ecplore the commitments in relation to your relationship and developing the requisite skills.

    How the he'll did I delete it .... I don't think posters can delete posts that they want too, I think that is left to forum mods therefore I can't have deleted it, even though nothing of the kind was ever said ! I am beginning to find posters determinate. To make me into something I am not laughable, none of you know me yet think you can judge me and spout lies! Get a life ;)

    Actually, I did something I rarely do and checked the old thread and the post is quoted still. (I did this because I accept my memory is poor and wanted to be sure I had remembered correctly) I do not intend to link to it or indulge in such puerility (not least in deference to the author of that thread)but the quote referencing ''friends'' is there to read.

    I don't normally get involved in these kinds of discussions but i did see that post, I assume a mod deleted it after it was reported, although actually looking there it is still in the thread.

    I was very shocked which is why I am commenting here.

    In your Additonal Driver on Policy (Teenager) you state '(considering I am 17,M, and have just passed my test)'

    Then in Young Laddy trying to Earn extra dough!, you state you are 18, even though this post was two days after the driving one.

    You didn't like the answers you got on here even though, in my opinion, they were all very helpful and thought provoking, instead you demonstrated your immaturity in how you have responded on here.
