What are your issues with gays adopting?
im writing a paper on gay adoption, in argument for it. i would like any comments on the topic pro or con. thanks!

serious answers are appreciated....

Answer 1

it shouldn't happen because its just plain disgusting a child should grow up with at least a man or a women or with both man and women

how would you feel if you were the one growing up with 2 men one as a father and the other guy as the mother who is a guy?

it shouldn't happen

Answer 2

Unfortunately, this becomes more a political issue than a moral one. If there are enough gays in political power in a particular state than gays will adopt. If not, they wont.

Wanting what is best for the child, it is probably not a good idea for gays to adopt. At some point in time society may accept their life style and the child would not have to reap the repercussions of a hostil society.

A Chinese child growing up with white parents in the US is considered an advantage for the child. People tend to see it that way even if it is not necessarily true. I know many and there is good and not so good in many cases.

Some white American families encourage the Chinese child to learn as much as possible about ''her'' culture and language. I say ''her'' because you will not see boys. Some take no effort in helping the child learn about herself. In these case, the girl will grow up and struggle for acceptance.

Children of gay parents will suffer the same. The best thing is to arm the child with education of how to deal with hostile behavior. You will not succeed in forcing society to accept it so arming the child is the best option.

The other option is to teach the child to focus on those who dont have a problem with hit. I dentifying such people will not be easy because the issue of gay life is a very hot and sensitive topic in society today.

There is no clear answer to such a topic.

Answer 3

The problem with children growing up in a same sex household is that they don't have a natural, balanced childhood.

This may sound hopelessly dated, but your mother teaches you things that are generally more feminine, while your dad will gladly take you to an auto museum, and tell you how the engines work. He'll take you to an exhibit of combat planes, and tell you what it's like to fly in one. Your mom can't do that.

Then there are things that most women physically cannot do. When I was growing up, we did a lot of work ourselves. If I had been raised in a house with two women, I never would have had the experience of fixing a roof, driving a tractor, or building a barn.

A gay household may have wonderfully loving, nurturing parents, but there is no balance. If such a union takes place, you would hope that at least a close relative of the opposite gender would help out to give the child a balanced upbringing.

It has been scientifically proven many times over that children raised in a one-parent household have more psychological problems later in life. The same I believe applies for a household with "two moms" or "two dads". There are also things in life you only want to confide to either your mom or your dad.

Without the two sexes bringing this type of diversity, something is irrevocably lost.

Answer 4

I don't see a problem with it. What is the difference when a person who is gay but had children previously like in a marriage and has a partner now? I just think (me being a single mom) two heads are better than one. No matter if they are the same gender or not. Also I think the child should be in a loving caring environment. If they child is in a crappy orphanage, why wouldn't it be better to be with loving parents? I say go for it PRO ALL THE WAY!!

Answer 5

Con: You attempting to write an essay, while still addressing the population in question as "gays."

Thoroughly uncool.

I feel since you are arguing in favor of such cause, you should at least know the proper way to address the sub-culture. "Gays," "The Gays" and a number of other terms are not appropriate. It can sound very slur like if not handled properly.

Gay Couples
Homosexual Couples
Lesbian Couples
Gay Individuals

Are appropriate and relevant terms for your paper.

I feel I should say: "The more you know." Ha ha...

Answer 6

indexed right here are my critiques: i think of in maximum situations, a 2 verify relatives is larger than a single verify relatives (and that i'm a single mom). I additionally think of in maximum situations, a mom and a father is larger than 2 mothers and a pair of fathers. to that end, while an corporation or the government is making an attempt to place a baby, their first selection (all different issues being equivalent)could be to 2 verify homes with the two a mom and a father. Their 2nd selection could be to ANY 2 verify domicile (meaning a gay couple, or maybe a mom/grandmother mixture). ultimately, they could evaluate a single verify placement. If the government/businesses placed infants in that way, then of course gay couples (and single father and mom) could have a complicated time adopting healthful white infants. although, there are a number of different infants, espescially those in foster care, that are crying out for a loving domicile of ANY form. i think of having 2 daddies or 2 mommies is ideal to being interior the foster care device the place a baby would wade by using 10 diverse "homes" in 2 years! I additionally think of a baby in foster care is larger off in an truthfully foster domicile than in a "group domicile" or "orphanage" issue. It sickened me a on a similar time as decrease back while Texas voted to no longer enable homosexuals to be foster father and mom. I went to the polls of course, yet my fellow voters outvoted me. Shockingly, it sounds as though few of those stable 2-verify heterosexual homes stepped as much as foster infants instead, because of the fact the foster verify shortage is barely starting to be. :-( besides, it extremely is my handle issues.

Answer 7

My main issue is, that it is better for a child to have a mother and a father, not 2 mothers or 2 fathers.
However, it is certainly better to have 1 or 2 good parents of whatever sex, rather than no parents or really bad parents.
So I would say that, other things being equal, a married heterosexual couple would be better; but I would not exclude gays from blessing a child with their love.

Answer 8

there is nothing wrong with gays adopting as long as when the kid grows up they dont push being gay on them. gays are human beings just like anyone else and they should have the right to have children. in most cases its not the gays fault that they are gay. its a mess up in their brains that cause them to be more attracted to a certain sex.

Answer 9

Statistics actually show that just because a child is raised by homosexual parents, he/she will not become gay themselves. Actually, children within heterosexual marriages/families are more prone to "become" gay. I think that because homosexuals have a lot to deal with(people accepting them, and just not being afraid to show their love for the same sex) allows them to be more accepting of others, thus will allow them to teach their children to be more accepting of people with differences. I'm not against it. There are many children around the world who need love and families. If a homosexual family can provide that, why not give that child the love and family he/she deserve?

Answer 10

Personally, I think that if anyone, gay/ straight, single/ married, whatever, is willing and able to take in an unwanted child, they should be able to. Any child is better off in a home where he is loved and wanted, and despite some people's views about the "weirdness" of it, I think any loving home is better than no home at all.

Answer 11

I have no problem with it, and I have often thought that perhaps in this regard homosexuality is natural by design; these people were perhaps intended to adopt and pick up the slack left behind (for whatever reason, parents that can't afford their children or parents that pass on early in their children's lives).
