Hardly. Same sex relationships are neither healthy or nurturing.

I read an article online says Even for biological parents, bonding is complex. The hormone oxytocin, which induces maternal behavior in animals, helps to facilitate the attachment between mother and child. But hormones are only part of the story. Attachments take time.

There is no guarantee for heterosexual couples to bond with the children, There is certainly no such a guarantee that heterosexual couples can provide a loving home for the children. Personally, I think it might be better to put the kids in heterosexual couples families SIMPLY because it might be slightly better for the kids. Part of the society still look down on homosexual families, why making the children's lives that much more difficult?

However, as long as the homosexual couples can bond with the children, and provide them a good home, it is perhaps better than leaving the children in the orphanage. Just my opinion.

You're blinded by your prejudices and ignorance.

Read other responses to this thread. State agencies have come out on the side of the lesbian couple. The birth mother supports the couple. All over the country kids are being raised in healthy and nurturing families headed by gay couples.

I'll try to manage with your disapproval of me. Interesting how the leftists here get away with the personal insults and attacks yet claim this site is comparable to Stormfront. As an African-American, I find it all hilarious.

Homophobia, like anti-Semitism or sexism, knows no race.

It's in the best interest of the child to be raised in an opposite sex home.

We knew this going to happen eventually, this was my only reason for opposing same sex marriage.
