Salon: 'Gay Couples Have Happier Kids' - Traditional Family 'A Dying Model'
NewsBusters ^

Posted on 09/04/2012 9:27:57 AM PDT by chessplayer

The left's war on traditional marriage took a truly disgraceful turn Monday.

The folks at Salon actually published a piece entitled "Gay Couples Have Happier Kids."

The sub-headline read, "Studies show that the traditional nuclear family is not better. It's a dying model -- and that's a good thing":

If you want what’s best for your kids, one surefire way to provide them with a healthy, happy home is to make sure they have lesbian parents. In the longest-running study of lesbian families to date, zero percent of children reported physical or sexual abuse—not a one. In the general population, 26 percent of children report physical abuse and 8.3 percent report sexual abuse.

Yup. If you want what's best for your kids, give them away to a gay couple. Gays never argue or get angry. Gays are perfect. sarc/

Just because they’re called “Gay” doesn’t mean the kids are happy.
I expect they’re not at all.

Because it's healthy to be deprived of a father? Where do these people come up with this nonsense?

Gays make up a mere 1-2% of the US population. Do these idiots over at Salon think they speak for all of the rest of us in this country?

It`s a farce.
Gay`s can`t make kids,-
they depend upon real marriages for kids-
Ask any gay: “How are your gay parents today?”.

The ideal family is the multi-generational family that was exticted in the middle of last century when welfare took over caring for the older generation in households and we switched to the “nuclear” family structure, little did we know that was a stepping stone to the complet dissolution of the family as a unit.

The Old timers are now kept segregated fromt he family and are unable to pass their timeless wisdom onward to the younger generation, what fills this vaccum? Government control, plain and simple.

This also leads to a lack in respect for the elders, this “infantized” generation makes the manipulation of the masses far easier than it once was....

First, gay marriage will be available.

Eventually, it will be mandatory.

How many of those kids are mentally healthy and happy?

No razzing from other kids regarding their two mommies?

Unfortunately, studies like these further undermine traditional marriage.

Zero percent is statistically impossible.

That, and the notion that children ought to be adopted to families that are, you know, actually families.

I've always viewed these people as quasi-suicidal.

This latest just furthers that perception.
