The Rodriguez Family
Greg and John Rodriguez started their family relatively early in their relationship with the adoption of Zachary, now five. "Zachary's adoption was easier in some respects because it was a relative adoption," Greg Rodriguez explains. "My sister is the biological mother of our son, but due to medical issues was not really able to take care of him. He had already been placed with the state while in the hospital when we stepped forward and said we would adopt him."

What are reasons to ban gay adoption?
Some of the arguments that individuals that oppose same-sex adoption are:
- gay parents will raise gay kids
- gay kids will suffer discrimination
- men do not know how to comfort a distressed child
- men are incapable of explaining menstruation to their daughters
- gay people will molest their children
- gay people are too busy with their pleasure-based lifestyles to care about anyone else
- gay people are sinners and will teach their children that sin is okay
- Having both a mother and a father is a primordial right or a natural right, or optimal situation, and gay adoption interferes with this right (the truth is, kids born to a loving mother and father who can take care of them simply do not get put up for adoption, so this reason is nonsense no matter how you look at it.)
- The child(ren) will not learn how to form relationships with the opposite sex
None of these are proven to be accurate arguments at this time. There is significant research that also states how it is actually beneficial for the child.

It's like when they tell you a project is due next week Thursday and then that day comes and you didn't do it. Then they say "we gave you fair notice"...something like that....

What relation is your sisters daughter to you?
The two girls would be first cousins, once removed.
Whether you are a first or second or third cousin has to do with how many generations are between you and your common ancestor (not inclusive)
So you and your first cousin have one generation between you and your common ancestor -- your grandparent.
The children of first cousins are second cousins to each other.
If the two people are not in the same generation, like the question, that is when "once removed" or "twice removed" comes in. It designates how many steps you are from being in the same generation.
What happens when kids don't live up to their parents expectations?
Disaster happens. The parents get disappointed and the kids go down the wrong way. That's why sometimes you should listen to your parents because lo and behold maybe they know what they're doing and whats best for you......believe it or not but your parents can know you better than anybody else even yourself.
When adopted can you leave your adopted family at 16?
Being adopted dose not make it any different then being with your biological parents. They are your legal guardians so whatever laws apply to non adopted children applies to you. So wherever you are, find out what age you can legally be on your own and then proceed from there. I do believe 16 sounds a bit young to be on your own, but I haven't got a clue. 16 is really young to leave you family, so maybe talk to your parents?
