Should gay couples be allowed to adopt children?

Or does a child need a male AND female role model for their psychological development?Should gay couples be allowed to adopt children?
nope no adoption. thats just wrong.Should gay couples be allowed to adopt children?
Bigot.

Report Abuse



a child needs a male and female role model in their life, in some states it is legal for a same-sex couple to adopt children. The world is falling apart..........
There are so many families in which children get horrible role models, I don't see why this is such an issue!





Personally, my husband and I are both hetero and have been married for 34 years.... so it's not an issue to me.





I don't like the idea of gay relationships, but as long as they don't tell me about it.... and I don't tell them about my sex life... it's really none of my business.





Some of the nicest people I know HAPPEN to be gay, and would make very nice parents. I don't think a role model has to be of the same sex. Many women have raised very healthy boys without a male in the house. When these boys get older, they tend to seek out male companionship. If they are not gay, they don't become gay from having no father in the house.





That being said.... I do believe that it is BETTER for children to have a mother and a father who stay together and provide a loving environment for their children.





But... why pick on gay people... when there are SO many dysfunctional families out there???
Yes but they should get in line. There is a seven year waiting list.
I think every child needs a male and female role model.
I belive that they should be able to as long as the parents let the kids choose thier sexual orientation.


As for their phycological health - No i don't think that it is healthy for the kids
I know some gay couples that are wonderful parents and their children are developing just fine.
sure, why not. gay people usually have more money and they would probably take better care of the child.
there are so many unwanted babies in the world. one may ask would orphanages and being shuffled through foster families (who often abuse children) have an effect on the psychological development of a child? hmmm....stable family sounds much better to me. i don't think this is an issue of right and wrong on gender relationships. we need to make it an issue of are these children being raised in a loving, nurturing environment.
NO
sure, IF YOU WANT YOUR CHILD TO BE F*CKED UP FOR LIFE! think of the ridicule, the confusion, and punishment from a cruel world that your child would have to face.


they need male and female parents. each has a very important part in the nurturing and development of the child. physically, emotionally and yes spiritually.


save A child the pain and anguish,


get a puppy.
Absolutely. Children simply need parents who love them. There are so many children worldwide who would love to have just one parent. Two is even better.
A child should not be denied a loving, safe and secure home because a couple is gay. That benefits no one.
I think it's better for a child to be loved, cherished and cared for by parents who are dedicated to their well being - than to sit around and feel unwanted in a foster home.





What difference does it make if it's a male and a female....or if the child is the same race as the parent? What matters is that they are nurtured and loved by someone.
i think gays shouldnt be there altogether because its not natural....
I don't think so but it may be simply a matter of opinion.


Humans aren't allowed to be guinea pigs...especially impressionable children.


Hmm...a suggestion....maybe you should poll some developmental psychologists in your area for starters...
I think gay people shouldnt be allowed to adopt children. Its just not right.
oh hell no!!! Even though homo/sexuality is largely accepted now,it is still sick deviant behavior. These adoptees if you will, will learn this unatural behavoir is ok???? Anyone out there wants to convince me gay is good, go for you sickos!!!
you have the right answer already
For centuries we were made to belive that every child has a Father and Mother,never heard of a Father and Father or Mother and Mother.
Sure. Many gay couples have children and there are too many unwanted children in foster homes.





It has been proven that children raised in a home with gay partners grow up with an advanced ability to adapt and are emotionally more stable.





Btw, for those who say a child needs a man and a woman as a parent, would you prefer neither... many children spend their lives in foster care and never find a home.





Why can't ppl let go of their prejudices and think about the children? Wouldnt you prefer a child to find parents who love him/her no matter what the sexual orientation?
No they should not be allowed to adopt children.
well, ud have to look at the history of the parent, it dosent matter if its same sex, a child will just find anthore role model of the other sex anyway, and its not like all children that were even born into a nice happy family have turned out perfect anyway
Hell NO! Kids NEED a male and female parents!
Sexual orientation should not hinder people in the nuturing of children. People complain that the children lack male/female influences in their life, but then what about the single parent? Isn't it the same for effect. Love is a special bonding between humans and if a child can gain insight into love and caring then it doesn't matter if they are gay. We raise our children to certain standards and teach them affection and love not by sex but by showing them how people respect and feel about each other. In both gay males and gay female couples, one of the partners is usually the dominant one, and in heterosexual couples it too happens...the male or father role is maintained and the more submissive role of the mother is retained as well. But my main thought is the number of children deprived of any affection no matter from heterosexual or homosexual couples. They remain in limbo, in foster homes (usually run for profit not the well-being of the child). Children need love as a rose needs rain. They can bloom, even if the gardener is a disabled, hump-backed, neanderthal but the love and affection is vital.
I'm not sure whether the ignorance displayed by some of these responses is either serious or sarcasm. I hope it's just sarcasm, because if not, people have some serious issues that they need to talk to their shrink about.





It doesn't make any difference whether someone grows up with same-sex or the traditional male-female parental role models. What's more important is that they have parents that love and care for them, and to prepare them for adulthood. It can be one-parent, two-parent, same-sex or male-female, it makes no difference. There's probably the same percentage of people who end up screwed up that have traditional parents as non-traditional (one parent or same-sex).
How many children have a male and female role model? Stop being ignorant
gay couples should not be allowed to adopt children because in nature if they can't have a baby of their own, it's not natural for them to get to raise a child too! What is the world coming to, God made everything and everyone of a reason he made a male and female so that they can be together and advance the human race! If gay people are so adamant on making others gay and having gay people everywhere and having merry world are they retarded? Without straight people those frickin gay people wouldn't be in existence! Children need the role of both a mother and father, that is how nature intended it and so it shall remain!!!!!!!!!!!!!! InSha' Allah the guidance from Allah will prevail and the world will see the wrath put on the gay people of the world!!!!!!!
Yes. As a foster parent I'd rather see a child with parents who wanted them than linger in the system where no one does. Let's face it, loving parents are better than no parents even if those parents are same sex.
I think it is stupid that this even has to be a question....a person's sexuality is such a small fraction of who a person is....who cares if that person is gay? or straight?....are child molestors straight and than ok?.......I am straight....and feel sorry anybody....so homophobic that they would deny a child to them....especiall since they can't reproduce....it is a double edged sword just because someone has different sexual preferences.
There is no reason that a couple should not be allowed to adopt a child just because they are gay. And as far as a male and a female role model--I am a single mom and my child is advanced for her age (most likely because she rarely does see her male role model i.e. father).
