Definately yes

Yes. I will ask the question I always ask when this comes up:

You have to die tomorrow. You have kids. There are two, and ONLY two, families willing to adopt all of your kids together.

FAMILY A:

Two men, partners for five years. One has a "traditional" job, the other works from in the home. They are more than willing to ensure that your kids get the chance to go to college, will be exposed to various and sundry cultures of all types, and will provide your kids with all the love and support they'll ever need. In addition, you couldn't ask for a better model of a healthy, loving relationship - they talk out their problems instead of throwing fits, and work together to make their relationship work.

FAMILY B:

Heterosexual couple. They've been married for three years, but they're "drifting apart." Both work long hours away from home, and neither is willing to cut back on his or her work hours in order to have time for the kids. Your kids MIGHT get to get their degree, but there's also the possibility that they'll just be thrown out of the house when they're 18. The odds are good that your kids will be screamed at, if they're not being ignored, that is.

Which do you choose? For the sake of your kids, which do you choose?

And just so you know: BOTH of these couples are completely real (altbough both have been together longer now than at the time I first set up this example), and the second couple - the heterosexual one - is the one I was raised by. I can tell you that given the choice, I'd much rather have had Mike and Jerry as parents - I feel it's safe to say that neither Mike nor Jerry would have threatened to not fill out my financial aid papers if I didn't do the laundry and the dishes before finishing my homework.

Think about what's good for the kids. There are plenty of homosexual couples who would love the chance to give kids a happy and loving home.

Yes, I do. Even though I am heterosexual and in a relationship, I believe that people should be able to adopt children REGARDLESS of their sexual orientation. They should be allowed to marry, as well, because there is absolutely nothing wrong with homosexuality.

I think gay couple or lesbian couple should not be allow to adopt children because it confuse the kids.It doesn't give a child a choice weather they want to be straight or gay.It doesn't look right for two people's of the same sex to raised children.A child needs to different opposite sex to raised them.

Children need parents, and two-parent families are better equipped to provide for the needs of children than are single parents. All the evidence indicates that gay couples are equally good at raising children as are straight couples.

yes i believe that we should be able to adopt children as couples and i know a few couples who are already in this process, i think that these children deserve to have good homes and good people to take care of them and raise them as their own!!

God No! What an incredibly selfish act! Children need the dynamic of both a man and a woman. By depriving a child of one dynamic, deprives the child of required input for his/hers complete life.

Granted some children are forced into one parent homes, and that's sad that these things happen, but to force a child into this kind of relationship without their input is just wrong.

I know you may not like this answer. Remember YOU asked the question. There is nothing in this post that is haterid or mean. You asked for my thoughts and here they are.
