The lawsuit was a result of the states' refusal to allow us to jointly adopt our son since we were not married (not that we could be married!).

The state insisted we create a farce, where Michael would adopt Adam first as a single parent and then I would petition the court anywhere from six months to a year later for a second parent adoption.

Universal expects to open new theme parks in Florida and Japan in the next few years. When it comes to movies, however, even...

Space Camp's parent-child program is designed for children ages 7 through 11, though exceptions are occasionally allowed. A $300-a-person fee covers the entire three-day Space Camp parent-child program, including meals and housing (guests stay in a dormitory-style facility and are separated by gender). Families that don't like the idea of sleeping in bunk beds can stay at any nearby hotel and join the rest of the group for programs and activities. One good bet: the Ramada Inn at Kennedy Space Center, which gives Space Camp participants a special rate...
