I'm gay and I want kids...desperately! Adoption is sooo complicated. It takes forever waiting on waiting lists. I don't know what to do...

Honey, first of all you are young. You have a few years before you should be considering adopting kids. You should also be in a stable relationship, as children thrive when there are two parents (gay or not).
Children are a huge commitment, and require that you be ready to shoulder the huge responsibility that they are. Get a job, find a good home, and then start thinking about your options. At 19 you just may not have what is required, even if you were just thinking about fostering children. Take some time to work on yourself before you think about kids.

Well, there is the option of surrogacy. Where you pay a woman to carry a child for you. There is also fostering a child, often leading to adoption. Or there is adopting straight out. Those would be the options that I can think about.

i would go with the surrogate suggestion too. as a biological father, you automatically have parental rights.
