With the amount of LGBTQ families that are expected to grow with time Family building providers should expect to see an increase of numbers with In the next few years in the LGBTQ community that is seeking to start a family. With more and more time that the year pass it seems as if they would like to help us more with adoptions and make it easier for us to start a family, although they are accommodating us more the legal system was not for us in this aspect. In more recent censes studies shows that

Between 2 million and 3.7 million children under age 18 have an LGBTQ parent, and approximately 200,000 of them are being raised by a same-sex couple coming from a place where all of this was more difficult in earlier days, having any of what’s going on today is a big increase and help towards the LGBTQ community. In the modern world that we live in today more LGBTQ people come out at an earlier life as opposed to back In the earlier days when it was more challenging and not as accepted, today with people coming to sense with what they are at an earlier stage in their lives, increases LGBTQ families and growth of the number of same sex couples that are planning to start a family. What Hopping-Winn says is that in order for providers to see any of this happen, they recommended for family building providers to be more friendly towards the LGBTQ community seeking to start a family,  many have still today faced the discrimination and the lack of understanding of the LGBTQ when it comes to the medical needs or more information that they need from them.

ReferencesWe have overcome many things in the LGBT Community, but there are still some obstacles that seem a to give many starting a family in the community a battle. When it comes to adoption for Gay/Lesbian couples it can be a challenge to complete the process and become legal parents to their new children, it has not always been the same. In the year of 1968 Bill Jones a former resident of the state of New Jersey, had become the fist gay man in the country to become an openly gay parent and had jointly adopted a child with his partner. Although Bill says it was something that social workers didn’t want Bill to say at the time that he was “Gay” and more for a protection towards him because there was a possibility that he might get rejected. Many fear of what it's going to be the process when it comes to the gay community adopting a child and starting a family, Its more of the legal battle that gay couples have to go threw in order to obtain only a second parent adoptions just for safety reasons of the child and to have the kids have a full connection to their biological parents. In 1997 the state of New Jersey was the fist states in the United States to accept joints adoptions for gay couples, but not until 2015 when the United States legalized gay marriage to all 50 States was when things seemed to become more acceptable and the country recognized Gay adoptions as legal for the parents of the child. We have come a long way form where the LGBT community was but the gay community has still a lot to do, with Legal adoptions now making easier to start a family in the community the only fear that some might have, is that some may have it harder than others. It’s more openly easier now to adopt a child in todays world but it seems like there is still a battle when it comes to the process although it may not be denied, there is still many obstacles  that you have to overcome to become a parents in the LGBT community. Same sex couples should have the same treatment when its comes to adoption a child as every other heterosexual couple looking to start a family, and the legal system doesn’t want us to free like there is a difference toward the difference of the couple but many today in the community still feel like there still.
