Gay Couples More Likely To Have Gay Children

I think that is one of the most ridiculous and outright stupid thing ever thought. Homosexuality is not taught or learned. There is NOTHING detrimental about homosexual couples raising children that is not the exact same risks and dangers as a heterosexual couple. I would even go so far as to say that there are probably far less since they have to work ten times harder to even be considered for adoption.

I think that children can benefit from having parents whether they are "gay" or not. And most of the homosexual people are born from heterosexual people. So I don't think the statement is true. Parent's don't flash around about their sexuality to their children (thank goodness) like that. You'll never know what type of people kids will grow up to be but hopefully they will be unique and great people.

In my opinion (which is neither right or wrong) who are we to judge some one who is different to us. For all the straight people, I like to challenge you to think about what it would be like to be gay and to have some one say the same thing about you. How would you feel? I am straight. So if I can try to think about what it is like to be gay wanting to adopt a child because I wanted to have a child to love. My partner also wants to adopt a child to love and raise. Then I have people say to me that it is wrong for me to adopt a child because you will damage the child's thoughts. I would be very upset. I do have friends who are gay. They are a fantastic group of people I have come across. I hear their stories about how hard it has been for them to live their lives without being judged. In my opinion, I see that there would be no problem if the child is straight and the gay couple supports the child's decision to be straight 100%. There are other issues I do think of. What happens if your child is gay, would you love and support your child the same way? What happens if your gay child is an adult and comes to you and says, "I want to adopt a child", would you feel the same way or would you support your child? I do have children. I will support them with their choice of life. If they are gay, I will love them and support them no matter what. If they choose to adopt children. I will support that decision too. You have brought up a very contriversial subject. There will be so many different opinions. I have voiced my opinion to show that gay couples do have support out there. I do have an open mind to all types of people regardless of the way they chose to live their lives. After all, they are still human.

I think that the children of gay couples definitely would be more open to that kind of lifestyle than those who were raised by straight parents. They would have to be as all children are influenced by their parents. More than they realise too. I know a guy who you would swear was gay, but he is straight. He is married with a child but he is very camp and feminine in his mannerisms. I believe this is because he was raised by his lesbian mother and her partner. He did have some contact with his father, but he did not live with him so he grew up with most of his male role models being the gay men who were friends of his mother.

If they have it through one of themselves, then yes, because they are finding that there is a psychological concept to being gay that can be inherited. But gay people adopting children? Nah. I don't think it's a problem for gays to adopt, I think they should be allowed to! There's so many kids out there just waiting and hoping desperately to be adopted that not allowing them to be adopted just because their parents will be gay is absolutely ridiculous.

I don't gays. So anything that has to do with a gay, i hate it. I'm sorry if you have gay friends and for those that is in this discussion who is gay or happens to have a gay friend, i'm sorry. But i still don't like gays.

i was watching tv the other day and saw a documentary about a mute parents and their offspring can talk. it was very cool to see how did he learn to talk when his parents can not communicate with him. gay parents are the same (in my opinion) as the boy/girl parents. like any other parents i am sure they fight too, and they will do their very best for the child. there are a lot of bad parents all over the world and i am sure they can not just adopt 1 without the government checking their background. i am not against it for me a child would rather have parents who will love him/her than boy/girl parents that are neglecting their own children. again just my opinion.

I don't think there wrong with that.

Last week's "World's Strictest Parents" actually featured a gay couple who were brilliant. They really got through to the teens and went the extra mile with the girl who was really withdrawn and difficult to reach. I wanted them to adopt me! Parenting is dependent on personality. There are plenty of heterosexual parents out there doing a good job but, unfortunately, an increasing number seem to be doing a terrible job of raising kids. I don't think being gay or not has anything to do with parenting ability.

I have several friends who are married with children and who are homosexual/lesbian with children and none of the homosexual/lesbian parents' children are homosexual/lesbian, but some of the married couples children are. Using some people's logic, married couples shouldn't have children. Personally, I don't care who have children as long as they love those children, provide for those children, etc. And if they can't do that, then they shouldn't have them/adopt them.
