I have no problem with it. I think there have been enough studies and evidence that being gay is not from exposure but a matter of genetics. Also if you look at the statistics of divorce at least in the United States the stable family for straight couples is questionable. Not that gay relationships don't break up as well. Regards

while these pointers are true and factual if you had a child or if you do have a child would you be more comfortable sending your child over to the house their friend who's parents are a gay couple or would you be more comfortable if they were a straight couple.

The issue for me would be the actual couple if I had the choice. Gay or straight wouldn't factor in. Regards

I'm sure you didn't mean this question for me. It doesn't matter to me either way if you read my responses. Regards

Sexuality should not come into play when speaking of adoption. There are gay and straight people who make just awful parents. There are gay and straight people who make wonderful parents. The biggest thing to consider is the number of kids out there who need stable homes. Sexuality should not be an issue.

I think that gay people adopting children is the best thing that can happen to children. All the children really need is a good loving family and waht better way to show that thn gay people going out of their comfort zone and doing so many thing just so that they can have a child. Plus the child will feel more loved because they'll know that they are wanyed and not some mistake or accident. It is a better situation thn a single parent family.
