" \n The first child with three parents was just born, in Vancouver, British Columbia (via CBC). Della Wolf Kangro Wiley Richards was born to two lesbian parents Danielle Wiley and Anna Richards, as well as the biological father, Shawn Kangro. Canada&amp;#039;s Family Law Act, passed in March of last year, allows for birth certificates with up to four parents. Wiley and Richards knew they wanted to have a child through natural means (&amp;quot;homestyle,&amp;quot; as Wiley puts it), but it was important that the biological father still be a part of their child&amp;#039;s life. Kangro made the most sense, as he was a close friend of Richards, and Wiley carried the baby to term. To make sure everything was clear in advance of the birth, a contract was drawn up: Wiley and Richards are essentially the parents, with custodial and financial responsibility, but Kangro is still a guardian and has rights to access (it&amp;#039;s essentially visitation rights, but Canadian). Even though the law was passed months ago, the parents weren&amp;#039;t able to fill out forms online, as the process still only accounted for two parents. The parents requested a physical form, and were able to complete the process without any other problems. Richards says that their friends, family, and local community have been incredibly supportive. &amp;quot;We&amp;#039;re just this family doing our thing,&amp;quot; said Richards. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s real now.&amp;quot; Photo Credit: CBC News Want more from Frank?
