Gay foster mothers fearing the worst

A couple at our church adopted a child a year or two ago. Of the 7 couples adopting kids that week, 4 couples were same sex. This is in Cedar Rapids Iowa.

"I don't understand what is so wrong about what we're doing,"

Then you can possibly teach the children what is so wrong with it......can you???

"We're a normal family," Ms. Crumley said.

No you are not.

You are a mentally disturbed sexual pervert.

Is it better for children that nobody wants to grow up in group homes, or be fostered by a gay couple?

""We would be devastated if we couldn't do this," Ms. Crumley said."

Then give up your perverted lifestyle. If your priorities are to live in perverted sexual behavior, then don't complain.

Their priorities seem to be to give children that nobody wants a home.

Wrong lifestyle ping....

The Texas Senate has this bill in the target zone and intend to kill it, as reported on the news this AM.

"I don't understand what is so wrong about what we're doing," Ms. Crumley said Wednesday evening

You might think that there's nothing wrong, that you're teaching those kids open-mindedness and tolerance, but kids can sense when something is amiss from a mile off. They KNOW, even if they can't vocalize it or put words to their gut instincts, that this "family" is not normal.

BTW, I wonder what kind of church this couple attends? Unitarian Universalist, perhaps?

"I don't understand what is so wrong about what we're doing,"

I posted an essay on my blog regarding cannabalism here in Southeast Asia on the island of Borneo.

Cannabals don't see or understand how what they are doing is wrong either.

The sad thing is that this womyn knows very well what she is doing is wrong. She trys desperately however (as many of these sex perverts do) to seek solice in the fact that secular law has allowed their to practice their selfish hedonistic debauchery for so long, but the void always remains unfilled.

Ms. Crumley and Ms. Sickles said they have provided a safe, loving home

I beg to differ, teaching children that gay sex and normal sex are equivalent lifestyles is not safe, just like teaching them that grown ups drink whiskey all day long, and should boink as many people as possible. I would feel sorry for a boy growing up there. Homosexual relations are inherently disordered. People don't have a human right to be foster parents. Texas has the right as a state to regulate this extreme practice.

It used to fall to Church orphanages to take care of children, but most of them are out of business, due to the state fostering atheistic homes and schools over faith based organizations.

Good post.

The answer is no.

And why a gay couple? Why not a couple of satanists or a couple of cannibals?

[verity]

You raise a valid issue that no one wants to address.

[mlc9852]

Would it be okay to give the children to child molestors? Drug users/dealers? Just give them to anyone who will take them so taxpayers don't have to support them? How about teaching responsibility to people who have these children and then dump them? Florida doesn't allow homosexuals to adopt children and I think it's a very wise thing. Do we want to promote the best interests of children or the so-called "rights" of homosexual perverts?

Why would putting children in group homes with other damaged children in their best interests vs. being parented in a family, where they can receive concentrated care and attention. Face it, few heterosexual, married couples want older children, particularly ones with "issues".

[CSM]

Doesn't their desire to adopt or be foster homes, prove their opponents right? Isn't marriage really about procreation and family?

[shattered]

I think that every child deserves a family.

Most of these childrens heterosexual parents abused, neglected and mistreated them. Many of them were born drug addicted.

These women are performing a much needed public service while at the same time giving these kids the family that they are lacking.

It is easy to say that they should not be allowed to foster. Then these kids would probably be sitting in some children's home somewhere waiting for the adoption that may never come. Sad.

[sinkspur]

While not the optimum, being cared for in a home environment is preferable to being warehoused.

Every member of the Texas legislature who votes in favor of this bill should at least have the guts to put their names on a list to foster a child with behavioral problems.

Otherwise, the bill is just grandstanding.
