I agree with you, Spaulding, but since every kid isn't going to be raised in a loving home with one parent of each sex, a gay couple beats many alternatives.

Yeah, that's fair but that ain't a ringing endorsement either.

There are lots of different families and couples now. Things are rough all over. I wish there was more or different support for foster families and adoptive families.

Spaulding, what are your thoughts on gay couples adopting children?

I'm a bit of a fence rider as always. Like Jorr said a gay couple beats many alternatives. I wouldn't be mad or shun a family if I knew one. I think a male/female presence or relationship is important. If I looked at my own family, of the 4 of us I think my daughter would be the only one to maybe be okay but even then... Me, my husband, and my son (speculatively) would not flourish being raised by a gay couple but I'm assuming things. My experience is limited in my ways and because of that I can't say for sure. I'll ask my aunt and uncle from California what they think in August and get back to ya.

Change is a necessary part of life, Jimmy

Some more than others.

The male female combo is a plus but its not THEE determining factor raising kids either.


I think this whole worry about gay parents will mostly fade away with time, like the bi-racial couples thing did.
