actually where i live at the beginning of the year they have people come in and talk to all the students at the schools and they encourage the children to be more open minded and accepting not only with this issue but also with other cultures and races. i think that is a GREAT idea. why would you say that only bad could come from this? i would rather 2 men raise a child and them be good to him and love and appreciate the gift that they were given than i would see half the straight couples that have kids of there own rape, neglect and abuse there children. who is to say if they would be good parents or not? for all you or me know is that they could be better than us and that speculation scares us and makes us say and do things that are relatiively retarded.

First of all, your question GAY MEN?? what about GAY WOMEN?? Do they not foster kids too??
I am happily married with 2 kids so am obviously not gay. I don't see a problem gay people bringing up children. Why would they love them any differently than if they had them through the natural way with a partner of the opposite sex. I would much rather 2 people of the same sex love me than either be in a children's home, where all children are treated equally with no loving or special attention, or stuck in some orphanage chained to my cot/bed. There are so many kids in this world just hoping to be in a loving home with somebody to love them whether they are the same sex or not.

Why wouldn't a gay couple be good parents? Children respond to love and encouragement, why would the gender of the people who give this love and encouragement matter?
There are plenty of bad heterosexual parents out there, straight fathers who don't really think about what their children need because they don't really care about them. Sad but true. I think that if I was having a child, I'd much rather it was reared by people who had its best interests at heart, and who would love it and encourage it. It wouldn't bother me in the slightest if those people were gay.
By the way, I'm straight and in a long-term heterosexual relationship.

The things you discuss in appreciate to having organic and organic children are so in touch they could under no circumstances be dealt with in a communicate board which include this. We (living animals) as persons own a maximum elementary want it particularly is to proceed to exist. preserving onto existence is our variety one objective. it is totally heavily observed through a want to keep up our history. it particularly is why we see the threat-free practices of children so substantial. they're an extension of their father and mom. i wager we are so shielding of all children more suitable as a commerce off hoping others will workout a similar for our personal. you do not say what your history is yet its unhappy that your judging it on visual charm. seems are about the least substantial. Be pleased with who you're and the position you've come from. As for me. definite i'd have want to have had some children. yet did not. Thats purely how that is.

For the same reason that a straight man would want to!!
Two loving gay men would certainly be better than homophobic idiots like you since the children would be brought up in an understanding environment instead of a narrow minded bigoted environment that you would provide.

I have kids and i don't agree with you at all!!! If you were to ask my kids if they had a problem with living with 2 women bringing them up,there is just 1 thing that they would say and that's,they think it's great. yes they have had people take the mickey and call them and us names but they have a brilliant answer for people who say these things. They say,'Your just jealous because we've got 2 mum's and not only do they not care what other people say or think but neither do we because at least we know they they love us. They are very proud of who they are and we are very proud of them'. So at the end of the day,who has the better attitude to this situation? Well i know 1 thing for sure,it's not my kids with the homophobic attitude is it!!! At least they'll grow up looking down on people like you,(as i do), because you and people like you are nothing but bigotted homophobes. I just hope that your children don't grow up with the same outlook on life as you have because it's very wrong. In future why don't you just keep your opinions to yourself!!!

"just thing off the kids and how would the other kids in school treat them"
Great, so because children may be homophobic as a result of an upbringing from hateful turds like yourself, then we should all be bigoted just to spare you and your offspring from having to make an attitude adjustment. Astounding.

I was in foster care for ten years and neglected/abused by some straight foster parents. I would have rather had gay foster parents who did not abuse me than straight ones who did. BTW - I am straight so being gay has nothing to do with the answer to your question.

how sad for a child to be raised by someone so full of ignorance and hate I'm thinking you probably think a child is better off in the streets or neglegted in an institution rather than have some evil hell bound homosexual raise them. you and people like you should be sterilized so you can't reproduce and breed your HATE and IGNORANCE. what about unconditional love? apparently you have no idea what the meaning of that is. how sad that you are so frikken retarded and closed minded.

I guess you haven't been following the news in the past decade. Gay couples have been fostering kids for a long time now. Gay couples are more likely to take the kids that the straight foster families do not want. They take the kids who need lots of special care either from medical concerns or severe behavioral or developmental problems. And the kids thrive under the care of their same-sex foster parents.
Just as a highly-publicized example, there is a family from Florida that fostered children who were classified as "medically fragile" due to their HIV status and/or other serious medical issues. This was back when HIV still turned into AIDS fairly quickly, and med regimens were much more life-intrusive than they are today (at least at the time of their placement this was true of HIV.). No other family would take these kids in. I can tell you from working in the system that these kinds of kids are the hardest to place.
This couple took them in. The children thrived under the care of their two dads and got to grow up in a family. The kids love their dads and do not have any problems with two gay men bringing them up.
In fact, the only traumatizing part of this whole story is that the children were not allowed to be adopted by the couple because it was okay for them to foster kids, but against the law for them to adopt kids. Can you imagine growing up in that kind of limbo?? Knowing that your dads love you but that you could be ripped from them at any time???
As for the other kids on the playground... They don't care! Kids are raised in so many different types of families nowadays. Grandparents, aunts, older siblings, family friends. There is no one right type of family to raise a kid in. And the kids know this. There is less of a stigma attached to having same-sex parents nowadays.
Sure there may be some struggles here and there for the kids. But those struggles are no worse than the struggles a kid from straight parents goes through. I very vividly remember many a time when I wished I could pretend my straight parents weren't mine when I was a teen. It usually had to do with them acting "totally uncool." :)
Seriously. Would you deny a stable and loving home to the "throwaway" children (yes that is an actual term) in our society? Because I'll tell you right now most of the "throwaway" children get shuffled from home to home until they hit 18. Why? Straight couples in general don't want to adopt older children, children with problems, children with siblings, or, in some cases, children of color. Because believe me if they did we wouldn't have nearly as many kids wasting away in the system. And the gay couples out there who aren't afraid of a little bit of adversity and who are able to open their hearts and homes to children who are difficult to place often aren't allowed to.
You don't want gay couples to adopt? Well fine. I have a lovely thick binder filled with the profiles of hard-to-place children looking for homes. Would you like to take one, two, five? No? I thought not.
