Aslong as the child is happy & healthy & loved, that's all that matters.
well basically, there isn't going to be a biological child, afterall it's a gay marriage. yes i know, children can be adopted, well if the child is adopted, yes there are roles moms are needed to fill, so with a gay marriage, that wont be possible
agreed. I too have some wavering thoughts about gay parents, but I'm all for gay rights.
Meh I've got a lesbian friend that adopted. Her son talks about football and whooping other kids asses like 9 year olds. Then I compare him to my nephew who cried when I took him hunting and made him shoot a rabbit. I'm convinced she's a better male role model than my brother. Seriously. Im about to take that kid for a summer and man him the **** up.
So yeah I haven't experienced anything to say that a kid raised by a gay couple won't turn out normal like a straight couple.
Thank you for adding in your voice to protest such illogical thinking however i would be quite upset if someone tried to make me shoot a rabbit as well.Have you considered the fact your brother does not want to cause unwarranted harm to animals for the sake of it ?
The kid most likely will turn out gay
Oh no, then they might adopt kids too...it's a vicious cycleThe kid most likely will turn out gay
I'm not trying to be rude, but how can you be all for gay rights, but have wavering thoughts on gay parenting? Do gay people not deserve the right to a family?
This thread isn't about gay marriages but the affect on the child. It doesn't really matter if you think its right or not but this is what I want to say; as I said before its about the child.
The child of the gay couple would be disadvantaged in a way seeing as they won't be able to experience maternal love which so many people believe is different to a fathers love, or the other way around if the couple is female meaning that the child won't experience fatherly love. There are some things that only a mum can give and do for a child and the same for the dad. Of course this doesn't mean that the child is going to be depressed but it could just be more difficult for him.
What do you think ?
Keeping in mind I am talking about the child.
I think this is a ignorant excuse to spread anti-gay adoption sentiment. Be honest you obviously made this thread to be anti-gay right? Like Wang said about the parents, and its none of your business. People aren't the same, and people grow up differently. Some kids grow up just fine without a mother or a father and instead with 2 mothers or 2 fathers. Its just as normal with a mom and a dad as with 2 gay parents
Nope, I'm not anti gay at all. I don't agree with being gay and I never would become gay myself but I wouldn't mind having a gay person as a friend, as long as I felt comfortable in their presence. I'm just looking at the disadvantages for a child when having gay parents. As a few people said before bullying is a big problem and so is that missing maternal love. Some kids grow up fine without it and it is better to have gay parents then no parents at all but that wasn't really what I was talking about. :|
i think the only disadvantage to having parents of any kind is having bad parents.
