Gay couples and their right to have kids biologically or adopted?

we are having a debate on the following questions...


Should gay couples be allowed to have biological children? yes or no.. explain please


and if no what gives the right for straight couples who cannot have kids have biological kids.





Is there a psychologically difference between a child who is biologically born or adopted by a gay couple?Gay couples and their right to have kids biologically or adopted?
Gay couples should be allowed the same freedoms and rights as anyone else, including the right to marriage and a family if desired. A gay couple can provide a great environment for a family because the couple has already weathered a good deal of conflict and adversity and becomes stronger because of it. Then you add all of the hoops they have to jump through in order to get a family and you've got one tightly bonded family. There have been studies that prove that children living in a gay parenting household fare just as good if not better than children living in a straight parented household. It does not matter whether the children are biologically born or adopted - in either gay or straight parents. If you are to say that it is best for the families if gay couples to have biological children then you are saying that it is best for the families if straight people have biological children and my family is living proof that adoption creates close, loving families. Gay couples and their right to have kids biologically or adopted?
I firmly believe that yes, gay couples should have their own right to either biologically have children (lesbians getting artificially inseminated, for example) or adopt their own kiddo's.





Scientists have conducted experiments and in those experiments, it says that as long as a child is raised in a caring, loving environment and feels safe/secure, then that child is fine. This is true for both straight couples, as well as gay couples. Either couple can raise a good child, all it takes is love, basically.





A child might be bullied in today's society, for having gay parents, however. So psychologically that child may start having anxiety problems, low self-esteem from being picked on, or something.





However I think that if the child is brought up by its parents to be taught to love itself, and not care about other people's opinions just like my parents have taught me after all these years...then that child should be fine, and should be able to get over those self-esteem issues/anxiety issues.





Other than that, no the child will be fine. Hope I helped, message me if you need more info, or something =]
Well, if we start deciding that the decision to have kids should be left up to someone else other than the people who want to have kids, then that raises some interesting issues, doesn't it?





1) Who should be making the decisions about other people having kids? Some kind of ';neighborhood watch group?'; The government? The church? Some ';Baby-Making Committee?';





2) And what criteria shall this ';watch group'; use in deciding who should and should not have kids? Poor people? Physically or mentally handicapped? Racial minorities? Racially mixed couples? Older people? Gay men? Lesbians?





Gays and lesbians should be able to have children and to adopt. This is not just my opinion, but also the policy of the following prestigious organizations...





The American Psychological Association





The American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry





The American Academy of Pediatrics





The National Association of Social Workers





The American Psychiatric Association





The Child Welfare League of America





The American Medical Association



Not sure exactly what you mean by a psychological difference - every person is has a different psychological makeup.





Gay straight, single, etc. - if a person wants to have a biological child, there should be no government influence. Same goes for adoption, as long as the parent(s) are not perceived to be unfit.
I feel that everyone, deserves the right to be loved. How they choose to live their lives is their business, and no one else's. My daughter gave my grandson up for adoption to two gay men. They are beautiful wonderful people, and they are the best parents. They also have a 4 year old daughter, and she was thrilled when my grandson joined the family. We have an open adoption, and when my grandson is older, he will know that my daughter is his Mother. My daughter felt better giving the baby to the two men, instead of a traditional family. Because she knew they would keep her in my grandsons life, and their would be no competition. We are all, one big happy family. I hope this helps.
If they are loved and cared for, then I don't see a problem. I'd rather it go to a gay couple than a heterosexual couple with abusive parents, which is actually quite common from what I understand.





However, no matter what, I don't see an issue so long as the child gets a loving home with loving parents (be it 2 women, a man and a women, or 2 men).
Gay couples should have the right to have kids if they want them. If they love the kids, then the kids will be just fine.
Yes both gay couples and gay singles should have the right to have children, biologically or adopted!
No you sickos
