I just answered to a disscusion about 2 lasbian that want to have a baby!And there all the posts wore like"YES THEY COULD HAVE A BABY,I THINK THEY COULD LOVE THA BABY VERY MUCH"
MY QUESTION IS!!! : why you people are thinking only that that kid could be loved!!why dont you think of how that baby will be,what will he think about this when he will grow up,he or she could be gay or lesbiaan to!!who will tell him all the "mans things",who will protect him when he has a problem like,someone has beaten him.
what he will be like,when the kids will laugh about him at school!!!???
he cant aspect from the kids to understand this if he cant understand it either!!!
i mean..this is my oppinion.i dont have anything whit it,but i am just mad that everyone is saying the same thing...."he/she will be loved"
what do you think?

I think there are a lot of poor children in the world who need nice homes. These homes don't necessarily need to have a father and a mother, just people who love them.
to me it doesn't matter who the parents are, as long as the child will be well looked after.

Ok lets set a few things straight. Yes the child will have two motehrs. Who will tell him about man things? ummm I guess one or both of the mothers. Is it possiable the child will grow up to be homosexuall? Yes, but it is a greater chance the child will be hetrosexuall. You are not raised homosexuall, you are born that way.
As for the kids laughing at him and beating him up part. The kid will either learn to stick up for him/her self or that will happen no matter what. I think kids are much more understanding then adults when it comes to things like this.
As for two women having a biologic child. One of them can if the have a doner. It happens all the time. Then one woman can have a child and they both can raise it together.

First off--all of those things you state as worries about a child have gay parents are all things that could happen to any child. Gay couple are no more likely to have gay children as a hetro couple would be.
As for what the baby will think when he grows up--he will think his parents loved him. It will not be strange or odd that he has two mother or two fathers because that is all he has known his entire life. We do not grow up thinking our families are odd because, to us, they are normal.
Just because there are two woman as parent does not mean there are not men in the child's life. Many children are raised by single mothers and don't have a father in their life. They (mostly) turn out fine. There are grandfathers and uncles and cousins and friends of the family that can all be role models in a child's life.
The argument that he will get teased or beat up is irrelevant. Kids with hetro parents get teased and beat up every single day for whatever reason. I had a mother and father (who were actually married when most kids parents were divorced) and I was teased every single day of my life as a kid. And I just learned to deal with it
Saying the child won't understand his gay parents is ridiculous. When you grow up with something it is just normal. I would say how can a child be raised vegan. How could he understand about those things? But because the child grows up not eating meat it is just normal life. How can a child deal with having a father that ran off when he was 2? Because that is just his life. It didn't just suddenly happen.
Unless a child has hetro parents that suddenly announce they are both gay when he is 12 I doubt he would be confused about anything. All he is going to know is that his parents love him and care for him and in the end that is all that is important in raising a children.

well...they will be loved and i dont have a problem too much with it..because i have a few gay and lesbian friends that have adopted children..but they are very small now..and dont understand. And i disagree with your what will they do with no father figure to help them fight,and do man things..helloo do u know how many single women out there with no fathers for the kids? I am a single mom and the father hasnt been here since he was born..well he passed away at birth..and im doing just fine..and they have big brother programs..and when hes old enough to play ball and be on a team he will have men coaches..but..my fear is when the children of gays men and women get made fun of,,that just saddens me that kids are cruel enough as it is..and when they find out the situation that kid will go threw hell..that is my on concern..andIt sux how mean kids are..but thats life i guess.,

First off, learn to mothereffing type and learn to use proper grammar.
That said, of course 2 lesbians can raise a child. Just because they are homosexual it doesn't mean their child will be as well. Women can be just as strong as men can and women have an even stronger instinct when it comes to their children. i had a friend in high school who was being raised by 2 lesbians, and she turned out JUST FINE.

Well, for me there is nothing wrong with it...There are a lot of homeless children who needs a family and if this people can give this kid a home to call a family then I guess it's ok. For all your other questions I think they could just explain to the child when he grows up what they are...Women can do lots of man thing..I am not a lesbian but I am a mother of 5 and I protect my kids when someone beats them up at school..Why do you have to think on the negative side of this. If this couple is sincere on having a chld for their own then I dont oblige. Through proper explanation and proper way of introduction...This child wont be laughed at..He or she will be lucky to have someone care for him/her when other kids have nobody at all.

Couldn't agree more with you eu_ursuletzu.
I don't think it's really a good idea they have any kids or adopt any kids.
As far as I am concern, parents in my point of view, are suppose to be role models that is mom and dad (male and female).
I also wouldn't think it would be nice when they would want the world to be like them. I guess it's not fair to the kids either.
Kids suppose to have a fair chance of being brought up in a normal family. And so far, in this world we still admit the existence of a family where there has to be a mom and a dad.

HOW CAN TWO LESBIANS POSSIBLY HAVE A BIOLOGICAL BABY? (Lesbians are females who think they are males, right?) No matter what they do together, it is impossible for either one of them to get pregnant.
But if they adopt, well then that's a different story. People change when they have someone to care about. It depends on how they will rear up the child and how they develop their personalities. =)

No, they are two females that happen to be attracted to females.

Two females can have a biological child of one woman in the couple. We have a number of lesbian couples where one woman was inseminated and carried the pregnancy. Most of the couple I know have chosen a woman to be inseminated and if they decided to have siblings the same woman was seminated again. I male partners who have inseminated and so one of the guys is the biological father.
So while it cannot be the genetic makeup of both it can be of one. Which is safer in this day and age than adopting.
The public school system I teach in has a slew of lesbian and gay families, some are teachers and some are parents in the district. They are no less or no more of a family than a straight couple.
Had I been allowed to be a gestational surrogate, I would have done so for a gay couple.

What is a "normal" family? If you mean a "straight" family, that is just like saying that black couples shouldn't be able to adopt white children, or a Jewish couple shouldn't be able to adopt a Christian child.But aren't black people and Jewish people just as much "people" as white, Christian people? So are homosexual people, and they are also just as normal. Child abuse is a very strong term to discuss something real and horrific. This is trivializing the word, and to lessen the intensity of it is to take away from the power that these important words have.

i agree with you totally!!!no two homosexuals should raise a kid.yeah the kid will be loved BUT how will they kid deal with the social stigma?dont forget its only a child.A child that loses a parent or is raised by a single parent does not have as much psychological baggage as child raised by two homosexuals. As for an orphan whose adopted by homosexuals goes from one psychological nightmare to another.
