My goodness aren't we touchy. The difference is that I KNOW these people. Yes, there are sick heterosexual parents, however they are a small minority and I've had contact with all of 1 pair of lesbians with children and they have far surpassed the stereo type. I think it's twisted that they are doing this to a little girl and I've every right to frown upon it as a mother who loves and cherishes her own daughters.

Now, I know and am friends with several homosexual men and they would not bring up children because they are smart enough to know that it's not a healthy environment for children.

I'm not endorsing government regulation of the behavior I'm merely expressing my outrage that some elements of the gay community would breed offspring to either A) breed more gays or B) satisfy their own desire to have children regardless of the fact that children thrive best with the love of a man and a woman (and that means married....i equally disdain single parents, spouses who cheat and ditch the kids etc.)

So, that being said why don't you lighten up a little bit and quit harping on everyone who has a different opinion so much. It's just life and you're supposed to be happy not so darn ornry all the darn time.

Let me see if I have this right. You're judging lesbian parents based on the single example with which you're familiar? Is that what you're saying?

Why on earth would you DISDAIN single parents? Some people end up with that role rather they like it or not (I did) and it is not easy to be a single parent. I am having a real problem with you using the word DISDAIN to describe your feelings about people like me. I raised a wonderful daughter by myself. She is now grown, she is very successful and she is the parent of the love of my life (my granddaughter). I DISDAIN MORE people who stay together "for the sake of the children" and harm them emotionally by doing so.
