Next week a controversial new law is expected to be discussed by France's parliament to allow same-sex marriage and adoption. Some argue the law doesn't go far enough and are calling for it to allow medically assisted procreation. But anti-gay-marriage activists argue that children must be raised with a mother and a father. Many same-sex couples who already have children are hoping the new law will simply allow both of them to have legal parental status. One same-sex couple talks about the law.
