I don`t it is wrong

I think it is always best to place a child in a home with a loving MOTHER and a loving FATHER. I don't think little Joey should grow up watching his daddies make out.
That's just my opinion.
Good luck!

Just because some heterosexual parents abuse kids or because kids are let down by parents who do not take good care of them does not mean being adopted by gay parents is the answer. It’s really simple. A man and a woman come together and make a baby, there’s a reason for this because both play different but significant roles in a child’s life. It’s bad enough that the child has to be put up for adoption in the first place, why confuse their world even further by making grow up in a gay home.

I think that gay people SHOULD NOT be allowed to adopt kids. First of all, it's going to mess with the kids psychological development. Cuz, what if you are a male, and you grow up with two mothers? How is that going to make you feel? You'll probably turn out gay, exspecially if you're a female. Same with if two males adopt a female. How is that little girl going to grow up? She's going to get made fun of all the time for having Two fathers, or even two mothers. And she'll never know what a mothers love is, or be able to talk to a motherly figure about "puberity", or boys, or jus stuff little girls talk with their moms about. Same with little boys. They wouldn't have a father around to take them fishing, play baseball, go hunting...etc. Its jus a bad deal either way you look at it. Second, in the bible, being gay is WRONG!!! Simple put!
Im 17, and grew up in a Christian Home (father's a preacher.) My parents are pretty old fashioned, and i grew up that way. lol. But, i believe that gay people should NEVER be able to adopt children. Seriously, what is this world coming to? (an end....)

On one hand,I personally believe that it is not right for gay people to adopt children, because for one- I think it send the wrong message out to people and the child that they raise. Also, I feel that if a person is interested in being a parent they should reproduce with someone of the opposite sex as nature has intended it to be.
On the other hand, there are so many unwanted children out there and if a gay person is able to provide a child with love and security, I suppose it would be better than to have them transfered from group home to foster homes and back to group homes again.
What should always be taken into consideration is the best interest of the child.

I definitely think they should be able to, after going through all the normal checks and everything to make sure they would be good parents. I think if more people were raised by homosexual couples it would probably increase tolerance and acceptance of other people's sexual preferences i.e. reduce homphobia.
However, in the mean time I would feel sorry for the kid who has been adopted by a gay couple because they are bound to get bullied at school by all the kids who have been raised in homphobic households. But at least they themselves will grow up with more of an open mind and less prejudices.

No it isn't wrong. There are plenty of children who have irresponsible parents. Promiscuous mothers and fathers and I would prefer a child to be in the safe hands of the gay people who are committed to one another. There are so many kids in terrible homes, with just a mother to look after them. Their sexual orientation has nothing to do with how good a parent is. If someone is selfless enough to care for another human being then it is a good thing. I think the child's needs come first not who the father happens to be sleeping with. I don't think there is that much of a stigma with gay men anymore, it is getting more acceptable. I'm not judging you for what you believe, our judgements are formed from the people we are around. Just put it this way, would you prefer a junkie abusive mother or a gay father? I used to live next door to a man who abused his kids and played strip poker with them, now these kind of people should NOT have kids.

i think its up to them selves as you can have a man and woman as parents and the kids can get battered and hurt in many ways as i think male and females are showing it harder to show thier feelings towards each other but i know loads of gay men and women and they show there feelings towards each other no matter where they are so i think yes they could make very good parents. just because they are the same sex dont mean nothing any more we are in the year 2007 now not 1800 where gay people were never heard of and most of the population are coming out they are gay so its just normal life for them.

Gays are little different to straight people in that no more likly to abuse the kid or be bad parents...
What kids need is stable, loving, realistic (ie not ones who think 16 year olds prefer dollies to snogging boys and going to parties)
Parents who are not relgious nuts...
The rule I would have is no overtly relgious parents... often the worst abusers and look around the world...
do you see gay
suicide bombers?
Witch burners, gay psanish inquisitions murdering folk for years in the sickest and most perverted ways going
Openly gay run childrens homes where kids were abused for decades or girl abusing magdelen laundries (look them up on the net where 30,000 girls where abused for life by nuns and priests), gays comming up with shari law to execute children etc etc
No tends to be the good god fearing moral types doing that.
Look at kids tv shows where the presenters are very camp and have good social and creative skills not to mention they tend to have good jobs and make good earners.
And if a boy... can help him pull...
ie snappy dressers, healthy food often, into keep fit, high social skills, likly to know lots of girls, or have had lots of girl mates so can give inside info... even teach him to try the sneak pretend may be gay but not sure and open to conversion scam... if the girl gets another girl and acts extra sexy...
Bit like girls pretend to be lesbians to pull boys

Yes as long as they don't have a bad history and are registered sex offenders. I have a gay uncle who has had a partner for a very long time-longer than I've been alive. Anyways, I've always known his partner as another uncle since I was young. Their children are their dogs, but I see nothing wrong with them adopting if they wanted to. They ARE great people. They are around family all the time, and we spend the night with them lot's too. They are wonderful. I think they'd make great parents. I have a 15 month old son, and they are great with him. I see nothing wrong with it. They are human beings with a different sexual preference than the "norm." So I see nothing wrong with it as long as they are good parents!

I dont think there is anything wrong with gay people adopting as long as the child/children get lots of love and care.

I think that as long as the parents are going to take good care of the children, not neglect, or abuse them, then for sure they should be able to adopt. Just the same as man and a woman who want to adopt. There are so many unwanted children in the world, that would gladly be with two women or two men that would treat them well, as opposed to nothing, or as opposed to a man and woman who wouldnt treat them well.
