why the fuck not? there are just as capable as a straight couple to bring up kids my friends as lesbiens and one of them has a 6 year old daughter and she loves having two mums! plus she makes her own mind up about life by jokingly saying a boy in her class is her 'boyfriend' saying that they should have the same sort of checks as a straight couple though to see if they are suitable parents.Comment

i think yes. Because there are many children without family, so why someone do not adopt them? No matter whether it is normal couple is gay. The main point is that a couple should be good.Comment

For sure! And Bush's recent tirade on gay marriages is ridiculous. He's such an idiot. I think its most likely a tactical ploy to take attention away from other things while election time draws nearer.ICQ ME: 203-810-401Comment

Do not forget, all that we count - by the normal means of life - the kept balance views of society. Life progresses, and necessary to know how not to be afraid of and to reexamine its views Gay and lesbians they were always and they will always be.But children in their families will feel themselves by valuable children, only in that it occurs, if society ceases to receive homosexuals as waning people.SEO Lady

No, but my reasoning has nothing to do with religion or "morality".
While I agree that a gay couple can be just as good (or as bad) parents as straight folks, subjecting a child to the teasing, harassment and hate that he/she will no doubt recieve in school and elsewhere is simply unfair to the child.Comment

Perhaps we should ban interracial marriage on the same grounds?Originally posted by LycanthropeNo, but my reasoning has nothing to do with religion or "morality".

Well the children of interracial couples would also be subject to teasing and harrassment by other children.Originally posted by LycanthropeI know you like stirring shit for the sake of stirring shit, but please tell me how interracial marriage equates to child adoption by same sex couples.
As you've stated, children getting teased is reason enough to deny people civil liberties.
Maybe we should make it illegal for handicapped couples to marry? More teasing.Last edited by Joe Citizen; 06-06-2006, 05:26 AM.Comment

Time to move on past the hate and other bullshit the kids might be subjected too. Enough gay couples do this and it will become acceptable. Just like every other adoption the child should not be sent to a home where drugs or violence are a problem.
Gays should be miserable like the rest of us and get married. Then they can enjoy divorce court too and pay support. Why stop there add kids and child support. Who knows maybe 1 or 2% of them will find true happiness.Comment

Then you should have said "interracial couples having childen" not "interracial marriage". Marriage does not equal having children. Since my daughter is 1/2 Asian, I'm pretty sure I'm not against it. I am, however, not in favor of a same race couple adopting a child of a different race. Whether you like it and / or want to believe it or not, there are cultural difference between races and a child deserves to know his culture.Originally posted by Joe CitizenWell the children of interracial couples would also be subject to teasing and harrassment by other children.
If that is what my answer meant to you, then by all means think it. Yes, adults may do as they please, but children need to be protected. So yes, I am of the belief that the welfare of a child should be placed before an adult's desires and his or her liberties.Originally posted by Joe CitizenAs you've stated, children getting teased is reason enough to deny people civil liberties.
Again, I don't believe I've ever said "disallow this or that type of marriage", but as my other child is disabled and I know what his limitations and abilities are, yes, I would be totally against people with his level of disability having children or adopting.Originally posted by Joe CitizenMaybe we should make it illegal for handicapped couples to marry?

Gay couples can't raise kids worse than my parents... or half of your parents. Or am I wrong? Either have qualifications for everyone, or no one. No reason to discriminate. I don't see how being gay can make you any worse a parent than anyone else.Comment

another issue where just believing in something simple like the notion that a child needs a father and a mother means your a bigot, a nazi, a homophobe and god only knows what else.Comment

Should straight people be allowed to post? NAH lol... Seriously is it me or is this board more obsessed with gay issues then me who is gay???Comment

100% no for men 50% for women - because young children dont and wont ever comprehend why the same sex couple is together until they are old enough. By that time they are old enough they are either tramatized to an extent or accept the facts.
not knocking anyone or saying it is a bad thing just my opinion.Comment

Yes, it's much better for them to be raised in orphanages, or thrown from foster home to foster home to foster home.Originally posted by Love Sex100% no for men 50% for women - because young children dont and wont ever comprehend why the same sex couple is together until they are old enough.

That's WAY healthier for them.

YES, it is MUCH better for the child to subject them to life in an orphanage, or a life of never having a real "home" or "family" because they're being rotated through foster homes.
That's WAY better than having the kid get teased at school because his/her parents are gay. Kids in school will NEVER pick on the kid for being a foster child or living in a state care facility.
ALL kids get picked on for ALL sorts of reasons.Comment

Let's not forget, statistically speaking, most gay couples that have foster children, or adopt in states where it is allowed, adopt black babies, many of which have special needs.
WHY? Cuz the "good wholesome heterosexual white folk" that choose to adopt don't want anything to do with a handicap n1gger baby. You want nice, healthy, white babies.
Gays are used to being a minority, and those that seek to adopt in this political climate, do it to provide care and love for a child that nobody seems to want.

I'm kind of torn on the issue. On one side, I don't know if society is ready for it. As others have mentioned, they will go through a tougher time growing up because of the ridicule. You are also dealing with two men or two women and the child may not get the full upbringing that a man and woman can provide.
On the other hand, it is time for society to accept these situations. Perhaps this would be one step closer. The reason it is taboo and ridiculed is because we let it be. The thought of a woman running a major company 40 years ago was laughable, but now it isn't even a big deal. Heck, African Americans hold some of the highest offices of power in the country when they couldn't drink from the same fountain 60 years ago. So maybe this is a step to open society up more.Comment

A GREAT documentary for those of you who wish to know what gay adoption really looks like:

Heck, I am fat and would get turned down in the UK because of that. My father, his brother and his grandfather were all adopted and I have a lot of respect for the process. It is much more important that good parents are found regardless of their sexuality. It is also equally important that older kids are adopted at a higher rate.Comment

FYI i state this because several people i know have been raised like this.Originally posted by BoyAlleyYes, it's much better for them to be raised in orphanages, or thrown from foster home to foster home to foster home.
