A child needs a male for a fatherly role model and a female for a motherly role model. |

I agree. A child will need a male role model and a female role model to grow up and follow because
they can learn different life skills from both. Also mums and dads have different raising methods
and the child can learn from each also the kid might get picked on |

I think they can be respectful and helpful to a child, but the ideal situation is with a mother and
a father. |

Adding that this child might grow up and have sexual problem and become a gay or a lesbian |

I do not have enough information on this to give a definitive.
I do not know.
However, in lieu of information, I will go with the mores of proper man/woman home. Sounds
reasonable at this time, and is in consistency with what I am myself: Heterosexual person. |

Researchers such as Lyle Pruett of Yale and Carol Gilligan of Harvard have documented thoroughly
(confirming ordinary common observation and experience) that mothers and fathers love differently,
although in complementary ways. Kids need the roughhousing and emphasis on justice of their fathers
as well as the tenderness of their mothers, and it's the lack of fathers nowadays that is the single
greatest social problem because it correlates the most closely with all the other social problems as
a causative factor. |

I agree with that. Children are susceptible to kid`s`jokes and they can also suffer from this.
Although a child should have a mother and a father that is the law of God why can`t people respect
that? |

Father and Mother is what God made and intended, not mom and mom or dad and dad. It is completely
unnatural for two of the same sex to be together married, let alone raising a child. It is just one
way our family is being destroyed today by satan himself. It is wrong whether you want to hear it
or not. |

It has been going on since centuries that in order to ensure a good upbringing of a child a father
and mother’s love, affection, guidance and many other things are required. Previously it was not
there that in a couple both of them are from the same sex rather this was considered to an absurd
matter even 15-20 years back also. But now it has been proven medically that two individuals
belonging to the same sex can get attracted to each other and this can happen equally in cases for
both two males and two females. In both the cases conceiving a baby is not possible but in case of
upbringing here comes a problem because that becomes a not so easy task. For a child it becomes
confusing to understand as to whom to place in what position and this creates a very strange impact
on their mind. |

It is my belief that same sex couples may be good people, they may be nice people, they may be
excellent examples of the human species but they are unable to offer a child what they need in terms
of gender role models. The absence of the male or female role model creates a knowledge and
experience vacuum for the child, they do not have the positive and reinforcing experiences of both
genders to go on.
A growing child needs to understand how men and women are supposed to behave. If two men or two
women bring them up, something is missing from their childhood development. They need to be around
people who teach them how their own gender behaves. I believe that the absence will impede their
natural development and understanding.
Same sex couples also bring up children who are just perfect targets for bullying. What could be
more of a target than a child with no mum and two dads. Does it not also promote homosexuality as a
norm, when it is obvious that it is not a social norm, but a perversion from the normal sexuality?
By perversion, I do not use the word as an insult, but as an indicator of the tangent that it makes
from the accepted social norms. A child needs to understand that whilst there is nothing wrong with
homosexuality that it is not the norm and that heterosexuality is the accepted social norm.
I believe that it is possible for same sex couples to bring up children, but I do not think that
they make great role models for their children. If they spent more time around straight men and
women it would be better for them. Rearing children is difficult and if they make a better job of
it than a straight couple fair enough, I just think that if it’s possible, they should only bring
up children in an environment with access to male and female role models. |

I would disagree with this statement because one can then assume that if a child isn't raised by a
father and a mother, that single parents cannot raise their children correctly either. If you agree
that a single parent can raise a child just as well, then you can agree that two men or two women
can raise a child just fine. If one is worried about the child turning gay because of the same sex
couples, tell me...what is so wrong with a child being gay? |
| |
|

|

Just as many situations can go wrong with a gay/lesbian couple raising a child as can go wrong with
a heterosexual couple. If the mother and father are lousy parents, then you're screwed.
Gays/lesbians would only have kids if they both agreed on having kids, however they intended. Don't
you think that this way the gay/lesbians' children would be better watched out for than having a mom
and dad who neglected their children? |

Who says gays don't make good child rearers, if the child is loved and has to stable parents,
whether it be of the same sex or opposite where is the problem.
I can expect a response like, a child need a mother and father in its life to develop fully. Well no
because single parent families can get on just fine and the kids can be become brilliant in later
life. As for places where gays can adopt they seem to be doing a good job, its when bigots start
interfering that there is a problem.
Secondly, another response will probably be "oh my god, gays raising a kid, the kids going to be gay
or something." Because of course all straight couples raise straight children don't they, note the
sarcasm.
Gays can raise kids just as well as straight people. |

They are just as good as any-one else! And they have as much rights as anyone else too! |

It this a pun? "rearing"? Rofl if it is |

I totally disagree with you, same sex couples can have pretty much the same influence on a child's
growing up as a usual man and woman couple, there are many single parents that would have the same
influence right? Its just one more same sex person to help |

I don't think that sex has anything thing with bringing up kids.....its the love they give them and
the things they can provide for them....there are so many kids in faster care and up for
adoption...if there is someone out there to love them why not? |
