Question

you can support gays all you want but why do you support them to adopt innocent children?do you think god created everyone from a mother just because shes a female?or a dad just becuase hes a male?their is more to a mother or a father then their sexuality it creates an emotional balance so the child doesnt get confused or emotionally corrupted .but once he has two same sex parents what type of life do u think he ll live?other then the problem of two same sex parents do u think people will look at him normaly when he says i have two moms or two dads do u think it will be easy for him to deal with the critism of science proffessors priest and homohaters?
p.s think before you support!

you know guys ill give you best answer even if u dont agree with me but your answer has to be thougth full

Answer 1

I'm gay and I agree that it is best for a child to have a mother and father. I also agree that kids could be teased and it is not fair. You have made some good points but there is also divorce between man and wife when they have children. The world is not a simple or easy place. However, I AM curious as to why you waste so much of your time in the gay and lesbian forum. It seems you are always here. Maybe that is something you should spend some of your time reflecting on.

Answer 2

I'm sorry you said what you did the way you did because it made you sound like a homophobic religious zealot.I also agree that children should be raised in a home where there are two parents to support and love them. I also agree that children need both male and female positive role models in their lives and need such to grow up emotionally and spiritually healthy and and a positive view of both sexes.However....I have never seen a normal person condemn a child because of same sex parents.If the child is made to feel less because of it,then it is the person making the child feel that way that is damaged and should be punished harshly. Also where is it written or stated that a same sex couple forbid their child from having positive role models in their child's life.I am not gay nor do I condone the publicity that is given to a sexual preference, but I feel that if two people gay or straight will take on the responsibilities of raising another human being in this pathetic crime and hate filled world then more power to them.The same sex parents will learn and correct along the way just as we all do. Same sex parents want the best for their babies just like any other couple.God bless any one who is willing to take on such a hard job. Oh,what do science professors have to do with any of this or do you just have a problem with them in general for some reason?

Answer 3

I'm straight. However, I completely disagree with you. First off, it is not right for you to impose your religious beliefs on anyone. Secondly, the most important thing for a child is being brought up in a loving home. If the two parents happen to be same sex, who cares? Its much better than growing up with a mother and a father in a house full of bitterness and hatred. That would scar a child much more than anything else. As far as the criticism from others, people always have something to say. Whether it be about your hair, the clothes you wear, the way you talk, or how you were brought up. People ALWAYS have something to say. But, if they have a loving, supportive place to call home, it will make all of those outside things seem a lot less important.

People have the rights to their own opinions. I just don't think its right to impose those opinions on the lives of other people.

Answer 4

Your belief in Mythology has nothing to do with the situation. A child doesn't become confused or emotionally corrupted by having two same-sex parents that love and support him/her, they begin to have issues when others insist on pushing their religion or bigoted opinions on the child. Science professors don't harass and criticize homosexuals and their children, that would be the domain of the priests and homophobes like yourself. So you seem to think because others cannot behave in a civilized fashion that two people who want to adopt a child and give it a loving home shouldn't? Does that mean that if people steal cars then you shouldn't buy one? No, it means you make yourself aware of the issues and learn how to deal with them before the problems arise.

I think before I even begin to speak about a subject and I fully support Adoptions by Gay and Lesbians.

Answer 5

I raised two boys from their early teens -- both straight. They never had any prejudice directed toward them and they developed just fine. The answer is, the same life every other young person lived -- except I never knew how many people were going to be at our house when I came home from work. Their friends loved being at our place, and some of them at least usually were.

As for science professors -- I ran down the hall to check with all of my colleagues that teach science, they were all quite surprised that anyone would think that they would be prejudiced -- none of them are. As for priests, depends on the Church, doesn't it -- my pastor and his wife support gay rights fully, including adoption. We can't do much about the regular bigots though, you are right there -- only you and all the others can make that better. That of course is WHY there are gay supporters, to help people with anti-gay views feel better about themselves and thus able to encounter those different from themselves successfully.

Answer 6

I'm gay and I fully intend to have children and raise them with my girlfriend. They will have plenty of 'male influence' and they will get the best of both worlds.

They will not go through all the confusion and social issues I went through because I will teach them to be themselves and that I will love them no matter what, unlike what my parents taught me which is that if you're not a christian, white, straight person then you're a horrible person. THAT is why the children of today are always confused and upset. It's not because they had two mommies or two daddies, its because the two parents they did had told them they had to be 'THIS WAY' or else! and then they were what their parents disapproved of.

As for people harrassing them, your right. When I have kids there will be people that don't understande. There will be people who don't get it but I'll just explain to my kid that it's not THEIR problem, it's the person who's doing the harrassing who has the problem. They will get their feelings hurt but because they have the love and support of both their mommies they won't be alone throught it all.

Answer 7

Well let's see. I can't speak as a Gay man who has adopted, but as a Gay man who has a biological son, raised by me alone, I can say without any doubt gay adoption is perfectly fine. The only people who will give the child a hard time are people such as yourself. You see, the child is not the one with the problem, nor are his/her same sex parents. The problem is you and people like you. You're the same type who used this argument against biracial couples and their biracial children back in the 60's and 70's. It was a specious argument then and it's a specious argument now.

P.S. I have thought about this before I supported it, you may will do yourself a favour and look in the mirror, there you will find one of the "science professors priest and homohaters?" you were talking about.

FYI, I took the liberty of correcting your spelling error on professors

Answer 8

This is a perception that is created by the chrisitan fundamentalists that is bestowed upon all humankind, and I think this is wrong because gay parents are just as deserving as straight ones to raise a child, if not better. The number of spousal abuse in the world these days, either physcially or verbally is so huge, it makes me believe that most straight couples with kids (biological or adopted) don't deserve them. Gay couples are just as nurturing and loving to their kids as straight couples.

Answer 9

ken, you need to get a grip. Since when did being a man and woman guarantee a decent set of parents? It is a total waste of time to answer questions like this, but actually, studies have PROVEN that gays make better parents than straights do...they actually CARE about the children they adopt or have! Hmmmm, what a concept, eh?

Answer 10

I believe a child would be more confused or emotionally corrupted because he/she was put up for adoption by his/her biological parents than by having a loving and nurturing home provided by a same-sex couple.
