should gay couples be allowed to adopt children?
 

im not homophobe at all but i would say: NO


what is your opinion towards this topic

my opinion is this shouldnt be asked once a year on gfy

why do you click the thread at all?


to contribute this?


even I am not surfing gfy 24/7

no gay people should not own children

should straight couples who don't have a fucking clue on how to raise kids be allowed to adopt? I say NO

you are assuming that because both parents are the same sex that somehow it is going to ultimate affect the childs ability to survive in the real world. I say that when you grow up with same sex parents and have to deal with homophic comments and stares from redknecks and the misinformed I would think that gives you more than enough balls and inner strength to deal with any shit the world has to throw at you

my opinion is that you are a cocksucking homo fag

Yes I don't see why not as long as they are good parents, thers alot of straight ones that doesn't ...

pretty much, yeah :1orglaugh

oh cummon, i rarely even come here and i've still seen this topic reincarnated over and over and over. It'll be a 5-7 pager as usual.

you wish :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

But why?
what if one of them has a biological child? Does it make a difference from adopting if the 'soon-to-be' parents were both of the same sex?

this thread shows what a kid you are...

Lensman.. card him!!! STAT

Gay couples often offer to adopt the hardest to place children. I guess some in this thread would rather see those children in institutions.:(

yeah why not? they can be parents like anyone else...

Everyone that says no should then tell us if they have adopted one of the kids out there that needs a home. Adoption runs in my family (odd term I know), and any one that is going to be a good parent - of any sexuality - is better to me than the alternatives for a lot of those kids.

My .02:

Female couples = only girls
Male couples = only boys

Why?
I firmly believe a boy needs a man/father figure in his life, gay or otherwise, and same goes for girls needing a mother figure.

I think being exposed to diversity at an early age makes for a more centered and emotionally mature person when he grows up. So hell yeah!

My cousins (Both 16 and 20 year old were reared by two of the most amazing dykes I've ever met. They were even perfectly toilet trained by age 5, amazing!) It's Oprah time!

if they are in a solid loving relationship and can care for and want to care for a child I say yes, definitely


spaz

I say NO, i wouldn't want my child coming home one day with a friend from school that his parents are gay and growing up thinking its all right and normal it will effect his point of view one way or the other.

No!!! :pimp

Every gay or lesbian person I've known all had heterosexual parents..

So being raised by gay/les parents shouldn't have an effect on the childs sexual preference..

Other than the mother/father role model part, I would venture to guess that
gay/les parents would do a better job than many hetero parents..

I've seen shows about such and the kids seem to be happy and well rounded..

I think most kids just want to be loved and accepted and if they're ok with having gay/les parents, then why should it even be anyone else's business...

IMO

Bravo! Very said! BTW I am gay but my parents were not... So their sexuality had no effect on me at all. 1/2 the people who have kids nowadays don't know how to care for them, if two parents whether gay or straight will take the time and raise kids with love then who cares what their sexuality is...

I think people spend far to much time thinking about other's sexual preference but I have noticed it mostly straight people who are always questioning about whether us gays should marry, have kids and etc... Us gays never question straight people and their rights and believe some straight couples should never ever be allowed to have kids!!!

Absolutely - gays should be able to marry, adopt, and whatever else they are able to do, without having a sexual stigma.

With all due respect, to say you're not a homophobe "at all", but that you don't think that gay peeps should have the same rights that straight peeps do doesn't make a whole lotta sense.

Check yourself.

i have nothing against homosexual couples, but i'd say no...

I think that homophobia is absolute bullshit, and asking whether gay people should be parents is just another facet of the same prejudice. But then again, I live in Vancouver where racism and homophobia aren't quite the issues they are in the rest of the world.

You should have prefaced this by first staing that all heterosexual parents are absolutely qualified to be parents.

Yes, god forbid your child have a friend with a different perspective on life than the one you hold. Perhaps their friend's parents would rather their child didn't hang out with the child of a smut merchant.

If the gay couples will be good and loving parents their sexual preferences shoudn't be a hinder.

I don't see any reason why not, so I'll say yes.

I would say YES. If they can prove that they are qualified for adoption or in raising kids, why not? i mean there are straignt couples there that dont even mind their kids...fact though, it may become an issue with the kid with having parents with the same sex...

and good parents help the child deal with those issues. Just as good straight parents would help a gay child deal with issues surrounding that.

I dont think it should matter. im sure there is some gay couples that can raise kids better than some straight couples.

I say absofuckinlutely! Most gay couples can provide and give more than half of the straight couples who are popping out kids left and right. The majority of homosexuals are very successful and can give a child who has nothing, the complete world. Isn't adoption all about just providing love to someone who doesn't have the opportunity to be loved? Exactly.
