Should gays be allowed to adopted kids?

Oh that's right they might get picked on in school. Yeah you're right.. we should just let them live happily in their foster homes where they will be completely free of emotional baggage. (sarcasm)

Seriously though... getting picked on in school is no big deal. Happens to a lot of people. The child is better off with parents than without, as long as the parents are nurturing and not abusive. And the only way to get society to accept homosexual adoption/gay marriage/any of that shit is to legalize it. Future generations will grow up with it being normal, and it will no longer be a big deal.

right, gay parents are the same now as interracial parents probaly were in the 50's and 60's

How? Do you say homosexuality is a kind of “scar”????
Children of straight couples grow up and some turn out gay.
So obviously the sexuality of the parents does not influence the sexuality of the child.
You may at the most get kids who’re not homophobic. I don’t consider that a loss.

Like I said the SEXUAL aspect of a gay relationship.

Imagine 5 year old Timmy wanders into his Fathers' room only to see two guys ass slamming eachother....you're telling me that you don't see how that could scar a kid?

I didn't say ANYTHING about that kid growing up to be gay himself. I only commented on how it could scar a kid. It's similar to a 5 year old walking in on their mother and father, only that's the natural part of conception.

As a gay father, try explaining to your child why you seemed to be practicing WWF submission holds on his other father...naked.

At worst, the kid could grow up to hate their fathers for what they are...and not who they are. The child could hate his fathers for being so different that he becomes the subject of ridicule and hatred at school....just because of what his parents are....

Of course...that could NEVER happen in society. Heaven forbid high schoolers belittle others in order to make themselves feel more secure about who they are.

I see how that could do damage but it isn't reason enough to ban gay adoption as far as I am concerned. I still think the kid would go through worse shit living in foster homes.

I never said they should ban gay adoption, and I know you weren't directing that at me because it was a pretty broad statement...

I know you are entitled to your opinion, but if you automatically assume a kid would go through worst sh!t then I think that's a little wrong.

could go through worst shit, but that doesn't mean he necessarily would.

Depends on the foster home...some are nicer than others.

first of all, its gonna scar any kid to see his parents shagging, straight or gay or whatever...

bullying is still not a good enough excuse to ban gay adoption, in alot of countries mixed race or even black kids get worse treatment...

I kinda see what Link is saying and in a way is validated. The privacy of the parents should be restricted and should not be expose to younger eyes. As they grow they will understand more about sex and relationship.

That's nice.

Now would you care to show me exactly where i said ANYTHING ABOUT BANNING GAY ADOPTION?

Seriously, if you guys are going to refute something I say....atleast take the time to read all of my posts and make sure I said it.

link, i was just responding to your post, i didn't accuse you of anything, and my last comment was not meant for you individually...

I completely respect that opinion Afro.

sorry pr1983, i get a little defensive when I feel like someone's saying stuff that I didn't say...😮

no biggie link, sorry if i seemed like i was accusing you of something....

and to clarify.

It's pretty clear to see that regardless of the parents sexual orientation, when a child walks in on them having sex, it will scar them.

But to me, it's more a matter of what you can tell the kid to explain.

Heterosexual parents:
"Daddy put his tool into Mommies tool because that's how you make babies"

Gay parents:
"Daddy 1 likes it when Daddy 2 puts his tool in his poopy hole because it makes Daddy 1 feel good"

Well....I'm sure your imagination could think of worst ways to put it. Personally, i just think it's a little hard for younger kids to understand.

true, you have to have a bit of tact in that situation...

What if little billy walks into his "Parents room" And see um bangin each other. Can you imagin what kind of emotional scars that could leave.

and why do you generalise?

If its a straight couple you can explain that thats how babies are made. Tell me how you are going to explain that to jimmy if his parents are queers?
