True Family Values

Re “A New Direction for 4 Orphaned Brothers, Sisters,” Feb. 2: Everyone who pitched in to help the Lee children stay together, from their friends and teachers to the remarkable foster father, Gavin Glynn, is to be commended. And to all those who oppose gay adoption, ask yourself this: How many people open their homes and their hearts to even one stranger, let alone four teenagers with emotional wounds? Family values means putting your time, effort, heart and money on the line, and Glynn is the kind of foster parent we need more of. How fortunate these children are to have found a home with a generous, responsible, selfless man like him, and how fortunate our society is that it’s legal for him to do so.
