In the past it was quite common for children to lose a parent to death while still young. Cruel stepmothers are a staple of tradition (Cinderella, etc.), not that all stepmothers fit the pattern (Lincoln's stepmother did not).

Bay Buchanan was on C-SPAN this morning talking about her new book. Her husband divorced her when she had two boys, ages 4 and 2, and was pregnant with her third son. It sounds like she did a pretty good job raising them. One thing she made a point of was never badmouthing her ex to her children, while encouraging them to maintain a relationship with their father.

I can't see how it can be haalthy for boys to be raised by two homosexual men--they will be surrounded by "gay-is-good" propaganda and even if they aren't abused by one of the men's friends, it seems that they are much likelier to experiment with homosexuality than if they were raised in a regular environment.

Good points. Of course there are any number of single parents whose children turn out well.

But how much better could the kids have turned out with two parents? Two parents means two incomes, two chauffeurs, two laps to be hugged on,...... two of everything parental instead of one and half the possibility that the kids raise themselves.

Think of a single Dad. Good luck getting a second date when your competitors only have their kids four days a month.

Men are trained to accomplish and fix all things... Oh, except when their daughters become women....walk down that road alone and completely unprepared...

Mom and Mom, how do you prepare your daughters for dating boys, the same boys you had no time for?

Parenting is a complex business done best by a committed man and woman. Keeping the kids fed and clothed can be done by any government bureaucracy or similar pack of fools.

Gay relationships always will lack the complexity and interest of relationships of opposite genders. My guess is that kids of gays will be more curious of that which they know less of, and may be more likely to go straight.

A single Mom’s Mr. Friday Night has often proved to a molester of the daughter’s that turn lesbian.

Parent’s twisted gender roles always confuse kids and detour and delay sexual identity to various degrees.

We are what we are due to a mixture of parental influences that mature us either because of, or in spite of how we were raised.

The less we roll the dice, the less we won’t have to guess at the outcome.
