The truth is a child needs to be loved and that is the bottom line. The idea that children can only be raised in 100 percent gender traditional home is just plain dumb. Parents need only to love their children, provide them with opportunity and teach them how to be good people. To that end I think a child raised by same sex parents who strive to teach all of those things as opposed to straight parents who preach hate and seclusion will be far better off. And why is it that the bible is part of good parenting? Stop trying to push your beliefs on others people.

I am all for a child having gay parents that provide a loving home. A lot of people don't think about the fact that these gay gay parents take the child out of an abusive home, a neglectful home, or an orphanage. Every child has a right to be loved and to have their childhood. It shouldn't matter if their parents are the same sex.

I don't feel gay parents or straight parents are better than the other. It depends on each individual person. I have no problem with gay people being parents, there are lots of kids out there who don't have homes or people that love them so if there's a way to make that happen less, that's great!

i think its not a good idea.... kids get teased enough now days you dont need some kid laughing at another cuz they have 2 dads or 2 moms its not right, but then again you have so many kids who live in foster homes and so many willing gay couples that want to adopt so its really split for me... and you really cant judge a gay couple to a straight couple if you havent seen or studied first hand....you just cant...some of you people are harsh and must not know or have a family member who is gay...yes the bible does say that you a man shall not lie with another man but it also says not to judge he will be the judge in the end... and in case you havent noticed gays are not the only one spreading around STD's straight people have unprotected sex too.... some of you are too closed minded for this kind of question....and im straight thank you

it is perfectly fine if a child gets raised by two gay parents..however the child should know that not all parents are that way an its his/her choice that they become gay or not..they just need to understand an have it explained to them..i think that as long as the child is in a loving home an is loved then that is all that matters...wouldnt you rather have a child be raised an love drather then born to straight parents an sold for crack money

Parenting ability has to do with a Parent's Ability to properly raise a child with good values and beliefs. Sexual Orientation is irrelevant in this ability. However, I would add a word of caution because children learn about relationships from their parents. Even though homosexuality is commonly accepted, children need to learn that nature intended for sexual relationships to be between a male and female for the purpose of procreation.

If they raise them with good personal values and give them the stability they need, there is nothing wrong with it. If a gay couple cannot have children, they could adopt an American child or be a foster parent, because we have a lot of children in this country who have no one.

Well I think it would be better having gay parents than abusive parents. Just don't push your gay beliefs on them. Give them a want to go to heaven, be straight, and follow the bible.

With straight parents divorcing all the time, they certainly can't say that they're upholding "family values" whereas gay parents are not.
I just don't believe that gays or anyone else for that matter should adopt and dismember an existing family to 'build' one of their own. especially if it involves coercing a young expectant mother to give up her baby. that's just morally wrong.

I am for the kind of parenting that keeps the best interest of the CHILD at heart. Doesn't matter if the parents are married, unmarried, foster, step, gay, lesbians or single! As long as the child is taken care of it shouldn't matter who does it!
