My Adoption Story | Ep 1: going to school with Gay Parents
I'm looking forward to your journey becoming Ben Smith.
What an adorable and hope-provoking video. Thank you for sharing your story, Ben!
Ok now I'm crying, love it, just beautiful
dope!
Have you ever tried meeting your biological parents?
One of the sweetest videos I've ever seen! :3 Psdt: you were so cute, what happened? Haha jk
You're amazing
Amazing!
I’m speechless. The storytelling – these precious video time capsules – the love your fathers have for you and you for them! I’m soo inspired by your sharing and can’t wait to hear more ????!
Finally, hell yeah! Looking fwd to ep 2 🙂
Awesome job, great story-telling… amazing life journey… glad you want to share.
This is so awesome Ben! I remember the day you arrived! We were all so excited to meet you! It seems like yesterday to me. Fantastic job. Cant wait to see the rest of the videos! Love MC!
Yes that young Ben Smith was quite a dazzler…
This is great
I loved this, and since I know your both fathers, and know how full of love they are, i'm so glad they found you so that you could form this beautiful family…love to you all.
Such sweet memories of you joining our family. Being a part of your journey brings me great joy! This is a fantastic video. We love you!
Wow i love the intro! ?
THANKS FOR SHARING YOUR STORY!
Great video!!?
Ben! This is so joyous! What a delight to see your wonderful dads way back when again. Sylvia Calabrese (Christopher's mum).
Awesome! Thank you. As a parent I’m learning so much from your videos. Truly impressed by your story and your life insights
Very nice work Ben, thanks!
I have two moms! Nice to see you out here telling your story
This is terrific! Thanks for this!! I love it.
My husband and I brought our son home from New Jersey last month. He's one month old now. I've often wondered how it'll shake out when he goes off to school.
I just found your video. its Nov 2019. I binged watch 3 of them… where are the rest??? Please do more. Subscribed.
What was your favorite thing about this video? Do you have any questions or ideas for me for my next video? Thanks so much! -Ben
Can't wait for the next video in two years!
so cool… love the buzz costume
I love this man. You told the story so well. I wish I had videos from my childhood like you do
Whatever your condition is. Be Yourself then.
So so good man!! Cant wait to see how this channel grows
You have a great story to tell – can't wait to see more!
Subscribed after your dads linked to your channel in our Gay Dads group. This is amazing and beautiful thank you so much for making this <3
Thanks for sharing your story Ben! Our little guy is 7 and this channel will be an amazing resource for kids around the world!
Absolutely wonderful story. Couldn't help but think of how proud Grandma/pa Bennie and Larry would be of you.
imagine being John Butler, and writing 'Ocean' for this video… 🙂
Ben, this was beautiful and incredibly well done!! The storytelling was fantastic, especially with such an honest, heartfelt voiceover. What a relief it was to hear that girl say "that's so cool!" in response to her asking why you had 2 dads. It's amazing how small interactions like this when you're young can affect you the rest of your life. I wonder what it would have been like growing up if she had said something else, but I'm glad that it was a positive experience 🙂 Also awww young Ben. You didn't just make a youtube video, you made a phenomenal short film. Can't wait to see more videos and learn more about your story! As an adoptee, I can relate to having others wonder why my parents don't look like me, but I just openly tell them that I'm adopted. Embracing that is the best thing you can do!
This is such a well put together video, thanks for sharing <3 I'm queer and plan to adopt one day so it's great to learn more about different perspectives of these situations.
