Well while I still think the ideal scenario for a child is to have a male and female parent is in place, I still think gay couples can make good parents and should not be prevented from raising kids. Of course there are one or two issues with the negative way some people will react to the couple and the child, but that's just down to ignorance.

sure ...why not...they are human like you and me.

yes, I think sexual orientation has nothing to do with how much love two people can give to a child.

"let the fight begin"

Probably, but can they raise a barn as well?

dont you know how kids are made, lol !?

Yes,they are normal people like anyone else.

I don't see why not as long as, like anyone else, they were decent ppl who will love the children and have the desire and willingness to work hard, b/c that's what it takes

YES, they are REGULAR people just like me and maybe you. I have a few "Gay Couple" friends that want to adopt, but cannot. They are great, smart, kind, wealthy people who'd make great parents.

Have you ever met a good child recently.

I think so to be honest it takes lots of people to raise a child gay or straight

Absolutely they CAN! If there is love...anything is possible. As long as the couple are in a good place in their relationship, can handle a huge change in lifestyle and can financially handle a child, I say go for it. With that said, this advice goes for any couple not just gay couples.

I say Hooray to them, good luck and God bless! Happy Holidays!

good question. i think this should have get the child's life complicated and cause adverse effects on the psychology and mentality of the child. He might be born straight but could be confused about his/her own sexual orientation,from seeing same sex couples growing up. Afterall, it depends on the home education.

Probably so.

My understanding is that gay couples love each other in the same intensity as non gay.

So long as the kid is raised with ethics and knows that they are loved, I dont see any problem with it. It's not for me, but I dont think that they are any different than my wife and I other than plumbing and well, position...

I think so. The gay people I know are more sensitive and compassionate than a lot of straight people I know!

i dont believe sexuality or the sexual preference on the couple would make a difference in rasing a child. rasing a child sucessfully depends on being loving responsable and being able to support them. I think Gay couples are on par with straight couple
as longh as they are in a stable loving relation ships it doesnt differ.

no

I'm not gonna discuss this topic

People need to learn how too agree to disagree

* duecez*

Yes, I would rather see a child raised by a gay couple in a loving household than a child with an abusive straight couple.

No.

Since homosexuals cannot reproduce they must adopt. The homosexual lifestyle is a dysfunctional life style and this will psychologically traumatize a child potentially into developing into another homosexual.

There have been a number of cases of rape by homosexual parents against an adopted child of the same sex, one happening down in Cape Cod, Massachusetts.

Many cured 'ex-homosexuals' have stated that the Gay Lifestyle is counter-productive and that homosexual families are self-destructive.

i think it offers an opportunity for the child to be exposed and to understand the outcome for people that "choose" to be homosexual. and yes... i do believe it is choice... and i say to each their own... i would rather a child grow up in a wholesome home regardless of sexual orientation as opposed to an abusive, drug addictive, spouse beating, alcoholic household.

Of course.

Children are born with their sexuality and it's not learned and or "nurtured" by any parent.

American Medical Assoc. reports released in 2006 & 2007 have clearly shown that there are no adverse effects on children who grow up in loving homes with gay parents.

Personally, I don't know a gay couple raising kids..But I do think that any kind-hearted and caring person/s can raise a kid, whether they are gay or not..As long as the welfare of the kid is the main priority, i dont see any harm...

Yes, it is love and care that raise a child and not the sex orientation.

Of course not.
Just because the crackpot PC new labour government has banished common sense in favour of pandering to focus groups doesnt make something right just because they changed the law to make it legal.

A mother and father is obviously what nature intended.Is it right that some selfish gay people would disadvantage a child simply because the law allows it?
Wouldnt that child be a target for the hurtful comments and bullying of other children?Wouldnt that child need the caress that only a mother could offer?
The child would be denied the natural ,balanced rearing offered by masculine and feminine input.

The reasons are countless.

Unfortunately,the way this country is at the moment,anyone with an opinion gets shouted down as a bigot for not supporting the desires of a particular group.
I dont care one way or the other how adults choose to live their lives ,providing it doesnt have an adverse bearing on others.Well,same sex parenting does have a major effect on children ,who are in no position to judge or speak for themselves.

its one step too far.we all knew when gays raised their profile and became more acceptable in an increasingly liberal left society,that they would make increasing demands.

the popular answers are sure to be the much cliched " so long as both parents are loving"...nonsense.beign loving is better than not being loving but still not as correct as mixed sex parents.
The other popular cliche is " think of all the bad mixed sex parents"...and? Are mixed sex parents any more likely to bring the child difficulties than gay parents?Do you discriminate against straight people?


Its wrong!

Yes, why not?
Even a child raised by a gay couple can be straight, I guess it has nothing to do with his/her parents' orientation. Well, it has the influence on it, but it all depends on love parents give to their kid and proper education.

no problem why do peeps always think something different.

its morally wrong. but who am i to judge someones heart?

yes gay people can raise children just as well as straight, in fact if done well the children learn about all types of differant people, i grew up with straight parents and didnt know anything out side the "normal" box. my sons are growing up in a gay household and both understand that it makes no differance who you love as long as they are nice to you, they have gay and straight family friends so see it from both sides which can only make them more understanding of all types of people. my sons are 10 and 6 and both are straight with a healthy intrest in girls.

They certainly can. My cousin and her partner raised two children just as good as any other parents. Their sexual orientation didnt get in the way of the love and attention their children received. Their two children are now 21 and 18 and both are fine young men with a lot going for them. I have asked them the same question that you have just asked and they said that they couldnt have wished for better parents.

not really.....HELLO WAKE UP

No way they'd just probably raise their son up to be gay and then he'll get teased cause he's gay and his family is gay.
