I think gay couples have all the right to adopt and although there is the issue that the child may face bullying at school for this and may develop psychological problems etc etc, this is a far better solution to have the child raised in a stable and loving home environment as opposed to an orphanage or with parents who are for example drug takers, which would probably lead to a lot more serious psychological problems!
And to put it bluntly, most children get bullied at one stage or another about so many different things, the issue is not to give in to the homophobes and the ignorant people, it's to tackle the bullying. Gay parents adopting in my opinion is more than fair on the child in my opinion if it means that the child is going to get a better life than if they stayed orphaned - it's the same with single / straight parents.
That's my contribution!  |
Probably one of the most sensible opinions I have heard on here in a while.
