🧵 Chip & Joanna Gaines, Same-Sex Parenting, and the Cost to Kids Magnolia once stood for faith and family. Now their new show features a same-sex couple who purchased children via surrogacy, cutting them off from their biological mother. This isn’t inclusion. It’s injustice.
#BigFertility is getting an awful lot of mileage out of you be believing that #Surrogacy is just a woman helping her infertile sister have a baby.
Another heartwarming tale about the wonders of infant surrogacy! 21 babies to one abusive (illegal?) couple.
BRUTAL- A young girl’s poem about divorce. "So when my mother asks what I want next year, cash is what I’ll say. Because what I really want is something they don’t want to hear.” Remember this the next time you have the urge to say “all kids want is to see their parents happy!”
No one is thinking about the babies that will be created or the adults they will one day become if given a chance to be born. In fertility world, we think only of the parents. That’s wrong. And parents don’t get it before it happens — they can’t. But, let me tell you, they do…

“I was following orders” can’t save you now. Hold them accountable. They knew better.
Vibe shift.
I feel the pendulum swinging... Good job, @Nike.
Try telling that to the child whose whole world shattered after the divorce. Divorce shifts the hard work from adults to their children. Put in the work and statistically, most marriages can be happy again within five years.
Divorce is hard. Dating is hard. Dying slowly inside a broken marriage is harder.
In IVF, you don’t get to choose the gender of your baby. Clinics create many tiny sons and daughters, then you pick which “lucky” one to keep and the rest are trashed, frozen, donated, or killed for research. These ads are fraud.
Not fathering.
Any job is a woman's job. Any job is a woman's job. Any job is a woman's job. Any job is a woman's job. Any job is a woman's job. Any job is a woman's job. Any job is a woman's job. Any job is a woman's job.
This is the best piece I’ve ever seen written on my life’s work. THANK YOU for speaking for all of my patients everywhere and all women and couples who are yearning for true healing! Comprehensive reproductive & fertility care like this is NOT yet widely accessible, but with…
A thousand miles from New York City, the place @MadeleineKearns call home, there’s a clinic that vows to help women with ‘unexplained infertility.’ She traveled there last year, in her quest to become a mother. thefp.com/p/what-i-went-…
He is 65, she is 38. They had 21 children, 15 under 3 years old. Several women served as surrogates simultaneously. This was all perfectly legal. There's no amount of regulation that makes surrogacy safe for children. It just needs to be banned. nypost.com/2025/07/18/us-…
Enjoyed chatting with Josh Wood @J_K_Wood, the Executive Director of Them Before Us @ThemBeforeUs about how our kids need both their mom and their dad. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the…
The more I am learning about #surrogacy and the not beautiful heartwarming thing to do, the better I understand the much needed work @ThemBeforeUs @Advo_Katy is doing to expose #bigfertility greed to protect the rights of children who are being exploited for gains! Children…

Good to see @Advo_Katy invested in children being protected @ThemBeforeUs is getting her work seen by the social media world🙌
In two of the families, the children: – know their full biological identity – are raised by the statistically safest adults – developmentally benefit from both male and female parenting – don't experience mother-hunger The same can't be said for the boys in the same-sex family.
New series alert! 🚨 Journey back in time with three families as they leave the 21st century behind and attempt to survive as 1880s homesteaders—without modern technology, running water or electricity. #BackToTheFrontier premieres July 10 on #MagnoliaNetwork and @StreamOnMax.
For Christians seeking a persuasive framework for articulating biblical views on divorce, same-sex marriage, and transgender in the public square, I highly recommend the work of @Advo_Katy and her organization Them Before Us. In one sentence: public policy should put the welfare…
How did the Gaines' fall so far? The same way many Christians do. They allowed relationships to shape their theology when it should be the exact opposite. As a result, children are victimized. My latest @FDRLST thefederalist.com/2025/07/17/chi…
