It certainly wasn’t best for the child to be brought into the world in a gay relationship, but that’s what the mother did to the daughter, and two women were mothers to the child for several years before the relationship ended.

WRONG!. Lisa MIller was her mother and the pervert was merely an unrelated adult living in the same domicile.

The mother and the “pervert” were a gay couple in a binding civil union in Vermont.

It was an arrangement agreed to by both parties — and it is dishonest to ignore the mother’s culpability.

And in case that doesn’t sink in, the biological mother told the other woman to adopt her child — a move that they learned was unnecessary because the vermont civil union law automatically confers adoptive rights.

So the mother was looking to bind her child ot the other woman, regardless of how she feels now. She had the child with the other woman, and even in her complaints about how the other woman took no interest, you can read that she WANTED to have the child with the other woman.

If the other person wasn’t a female, I doubt we’d have all these arguments here, even though the law would be identical on the matter.
