here gas of protesters marching through a district of when they're demanding action against gang attacks on the democracy demonstrations it's the latest in a string of protests to attempt. i'm called last man you're watching news up next reporter takes a look at what life is like for 2 dads raising twins together i'm back with more news at the top of the. car 1st day of school in the jungle. first clearly listen. to spend doris brenda moment arrives. join during a training on her journey back to freedom. in our interactive documentary. the writer jane returns home on t w dot com orangutang.

if you ever have to cover up a murder the best way is to make up an accident raring to a. novel read a book like this or. does the term assist the return of the streets. come. johnny and stefan are a couple now they've become proud parents too. this is rooster from stray from as soon as i met steph and i knew we could start a family together it was such an incredible feeling to see our children for the 1st time skiing to see. a. car with the. guys for all that inside the. sun.

deck yet never any fee to do that we got a lot of books from friends and neighbors and acquaintances we looked up a few chapters like i'm sleeping and stuff like that. and we spent a lot of time talking to our midwife. and we followed our instincts are lots of things just work themselves out well i live for him come for. every day family life and yet it's remarkable. night. he saw johnny sister mary angela and his niece rosa supported him on his path to fatherhood. his for a number. of the creek so 1st the embryos were created and then we met robin. that was 6 months later or and we liked her right away we thought she was great and we knew we could picture going on this journey with her biggest one and she felt

the same way so as of april 24th we knew if all goes well we'll be pregnant soon. robyn carried the children to term as a surrogate mother they'd been conceived in a laboratory with 2 eggs donated by a different woman and sperm from each of the fathers in germany it's against the law to donate eggs or act as a surrogate but it is allowed in california funding of them incident with the process is hugely expensive. especially if you want to do it in the us and you could probably afford your own home with that kind of money maybe not downtown but you could definitely get an apartment in a smaller city construct was among us when apartment becomes. stephan and johnny were lucky. and everything went well. you know joy never. johnny was in the operating theatre i was outside looking through across the plains and since it was a twin path only one of us was allowed in i said i'd be fine if i could watch

through the grass and of course call robin was the 1st one allowed to hold them. even because they were born we knew which baby was biologically related to them amalia and already oh both have to say much of the same egg don't know this is biologically speaking they're half siblings and i fathered one and johnny fathered the other. migrants on the other thought you know. today they're expecting an important visitor robin the surrogate mother is on her way to stuttgart for the 1st time to see the family. to live busy to feed the baby if yes. the twins are 6 months old now. that is a good thing. robin has

2 children of her own her daughter agree on a came along with her. really. i gave birth to beds when it's because surrogacy is something i've always wanted to do and then when i met johnny and steph and i knew they were perfect i loved being pregnant and so those are my reasons for doing it was to help johnny and step in the open in the back of our radio. but if you boil it down to the name. i think they say it lasted like 3 or $4.00 an hour for 9 months so really i could go get a part time job at mcdonald's and make more money than i would be pregnant for 9 months and i can't imagine just. the money you make it it's the whole package. saturday is family day 1st they visit johnny's mother at

a nursing home alone after suffering a cerebral haemorrhage she's only got to speak. don't speak for me. i love being able to feed you. you fed me for years and now it's nice that it's the other way around. in the. us surrogate mothers give birth to about 6000 children a year in germany the embryo protection law forbids it even for heterosexual couples who can't conceive. critics say the ban is outdated by now plenty of couples like johnny and stefan look abroad to fulfill their wish of having their own children. the next stop is stephens parents' house in a small town in upper swabian there are devout catholics.

who feel more in their voice all the little. sunday walk is a firm tradition to gay dads with their baby carriages isn't something you see every day at least not here. it wasn't easy at 1st to deal with the fact that he was just different and gay but at the end of the day is over. this is where the abuse now is it's known as the holy mountain opposite way be out there wolf it's a very special place people without children go up this mountain and pray for children and feel like maybe it works after all. we used to call up paris kids all the time when so it's a great feeling to be back here now with our own kids on the bus and like with since the side. of them a kid stuff for sure the 1st one i told us that they were expecting it felt strange

decide this but we accepted it and accepted the way things happened i mean we're happy with the children are here even if the church doesn't want them because they but i don't agree with that he said. 2 children have arrived in the church needs to accept that fact they're living creatures no matter where they're from and they're here now to come and i was in town it think about their 1st attempt was immediately successful i must say it looks like god means them well that's what i think you know that's right. so thinking. you know they're doing ok you and amalia might face tough questions down the road shows or even hostilities. but their extended family supports them wholeheartedly stuck it out is the way of life and blow and stephanie and johnny can pass the strength on to their children but what houses in your book i

back in stuttgart johnny and stephanie want to keep up their social ties. it's a challenge all parents face. you know. that all we need is not having a good day today. i. know but this is fine you can't do it like that but you can't give him his pacifier the. most you need to take it away or he wonders stand that it's time to eat now it's right but he doesn't want to eat then let him cry. just leave them. well they were. very nice all wound up you just need to go to bed. and it.

was sort of you're in a bad mood today aren't you. stefan doesn't look anything flustered him not his 1st the sun or use partner. it's hot and then suddenly everything's all better. order. 2 months later it's the twins' 1st birthday. is going to since just since things are a little hectic right now i've just left the office and the guests are arriving at 230. it was important to us to celebrate with our family and friends now that our little ones have been with us for a year and find no to do and for you know stephan left the office early to make it to the party on time the twins are still in daycare. and we move since we have space to see 10 people so johnny isn't a big fan of table cloths and stuff like that. that's up to me all done so i just

said that. johnny and stefan share a business that means they can choose their own work hours perfect for the small family i know or. something. it looks great here. everything is ready. it looks fantastic i wish it was my birthday. it's all right it's just your inside but it's a positive kind of stress and i we bicker sometimes but that's just the way things are but it's all worth it when the kids come home and see everything is. what they saw everything this morning to with her and that was lovely it's sad and that's just something that takes time no matter why. i mean this kind of all nervous i was called guys. i had oh it's. not loud enough but i'm married soon too little kill somebody.

out look honey she can walk. and so can you. go way off. here's an tiptoe very selfish prick ok. well i was your. idol host families come to celebrate. i. think it was. really you know julie and stephanie want this to feel normal for their children they want them to understand that a family doesn't have to be a mother and a father to be full of love. and they want to keep in touch with the surrogate mother often she sent a special gift for the twins 1st birthday. packets from america

but now robinson something look enough to hold them up. i'm all for. the well honey through ooc are we sure 1st birthday is fun all day through from your 1st kids to your last dream come true. there was. no need to amalia and are in the very best hands. of nobody who actually writes i. think my murder. i mean. does the class size the close off the earth.
