In the sixth episode of the series we ask "What do I do if...I'm adopting in a same-sex relationship?"

Highly experienced family lawyer, Garry Sturrock discusses the law and process surrounding same-sex adoption in Scotland alongside Andrew Askew Blain, who has been through the adoption process himself along with his husband.

Garry and Andrew discuss the different pathways to parenthood for same-sex couples, the positive experiences as well as the challenges of adoption in Scotland, as well as how long the adoption process takes.
