'No differences' between children of same-sex and opposite-sex parents (emesis alert)

A new study in the Journal of Developmental and Behavioral Pediatrics finds that the kids really are all right. Despite the ongoing cultural debate around same-sex parenting, the new study finds the children of same-sex parents are just as healthy emotionally and physically as the children of different-sex parents. […]

The study found that there were no differences in the children when it came to their general health, their emotional difficulties, their coping behaviors and their learning behaviors. What the study found to be more indicative predictors of these behaviors were the relationships between the parents, the parents and child, and parenting stress.

The study did note that lesbian parents seem to exhibit higher levels of parenting stress, which (Dr. Nanette) Gartrell attributed to perceived homophobia. […] The current study only looked at lesbian households, because when households were finally matched and controlled for continuous relationships, there were too few male same-sex households. …

So basically the study found nothing. The list of characteristics they studied is too broad, too.

Unfortunately, most of the people I know who grew up in screwed up families are screwed up adults. I am sorry but same sex couples are screwed up and most raise screwed up kids.

Read “Japtheh’s Daughter” by Robert Oscar Lopez. I may have the title spelled wrong.

And there is still no scientific evidence homosexuals are born that way.

Daughter had a friend in high school raised by lesbians and he turned out to be a basket case. I doubt he’s still alive.

There is no such thing as same-sex children. There are homosexual couples who raise children who came from heterosexuality (no matter how contrived). Are they still kids? Of course. There is a sad loss of any opportunity to know their biological father and mother. That is a given. Then there is the childhood innocence lost from being forced to play child to an impossible situation and pretend to the world it is ok — all to make the adults feel good about themselves.

Lesbian couples are lunacy incorporated, the highest spouse abuse of any coupling, the highest Drug/Alcohol abuse, the highest suicide rate, the highest mental hospital commitment, etc

The more dysfunctional the society, the more need for powerful governmental power to control it.

Same sex “couples” cannot have children. Wrong premise, ergo a wrong expostulation. Genesis 2:24: Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. You cannot improve on the morality and intent of God.

What about the study that shows 20% of children raised in sodomite households turn out to be homosexual or “bisexual” as opposed to the 2% of the sodomite population?

> “Same sex “couples” cannot have children.”

They have them by insemination from a homosexual sperm donor to a homosexual woman.

The children born into this are exposed to deviancy from the first awareness of existence. They may or may not know both parents but they will know one and the one’s partner.

We can only imagine how horrible it is for these children. At some point when their instincts emerge, they will know that everything they have seen is unnatural and perverted. They will feed confusion, shame and isolation.

And it’s not their fault,

If you have a traditional family with children, hug them and count your blessings you are able to give them a sense of natural relationships.

Yes that is their modus operandi and I knew this would be a response. It is still not their “children” in the biblical sense, which was my point. It is just an argument against God’s created plan, one that is never addressed and cannot be refuted.

I still read lots of articles saying they’re “born that way.”

Lesbians have the highest rate of mate-abuse of couples? They probably blame it on homophobia.

A child needs the yin and yang not yin and yin or yang and yang.

That’s very perceptive. It’s maybe the most perceptive statement I’ve ever read about the Left. The Left is always ready to take advantage of a crisis. Rahm Immanuel said so himself. If one were to keep society in a constant crisis or state of decay without people knowing about it, then people will cede their rights to the government thereby increasing governmental power and ensuring a permanent dictatorship or other form of oppressive government.
