Hey, just because someone’s gay doesn’t mean they are a pederast!
Look, in the foster care system, you sometimes have some really unpleasant choices. You can have the kid languish in the system, which doesn’t prepare them at all for life outside (because gov’t makes a LOUSY parent), or maybe there’s someone out there that wants to be a parent that just happens to be gay.
I don’t like it, either but I’d say if there are no hetero married couples or single people to take a kid, having them be raised by gay people may not be such a terrible thing.
Believe me, state run group homes and other foster homes can’t give the kids the stability they need.
Actually the facts state that about one third of all child molestations is same sex. Yet homosexuals are at most 2% of the population. Face it, child molesting is much more prevalent among homosexuals. And kids raised in homosexual households have many problems. The idea that there aren’t enough married couples to adopt children is not true; married couples often wait for years and years trying to adopt.
The very last thing any child needs is to grow up in a household of homosexuals.
a child can be raised in a household of two males or two females.....but its not a mommy/daddy situation and never can be.....I am just old fashioned and no matter how people complain, there is nothing better than a sound marriage between a man and a woman for civilization and child raising.....
My wife and I were on a waiting list for 7 years, through the county/ state. We went through numerous screenings, meetings etc... We were finally selected for a sibling group. The oldest girl (13 years old) had no interest in being adopted, she wanted to live with her neglectful/abusive mother. She was placed in a residential facility to deal with some issues related to the adoption. She requested and the facility recommended that she be separated from the other two, her law guardian agreed with her. The county agency requested that they not be separated. This meant that every two weeks we had to travel 200 miles one way to either pick her up or take the other two for a sibling visit (gas at our expense). We begged the county to reconsider, they wouldn't hear it. Eventually we had to cancel because we could not afford all the wear and tear on the vehicles, or the gas expense. The county and states need to get out of the child welfare business, and let orphanages do the job.
