Groove wonders what Accywebbers think on the issue of gay couples addopting...Although they would be just as competent as heterosexual couples, is it right to have a child brought up by a gay couple?
 
Working in the town centre and seeing the number of unfit hetrosexual parents who leave a lot to be desired I'd say they can't do any worse.
 
Regarding heterosexual parents in the town centre, can totally see your point Dave
 
nothing at all wrong with gay couples adopting, 2 parents are better than no parents no matter what sex they are
 
Groove thinks certain kids with homosexual parents will get some stick off other pupils. We all know how cruel kids can be...Groove thinks this factor has been overlooked by fellow posters.
 
my sister in law and sister in law have a daughter they are the same as other parents they're just both women. kids get picked on for all sorts of reasons, are we going to stop kids wearing glasses,having ginger hair,being different to the rest of the herd in case they get bullies?
 
Groove thinks word on the playground would be 'suchabody does'nt have a real mum n dad, suchabodys mum and dad are lesbos'...not grooves views, merely grooves presumption on this issue.
 
Mavis Davis thinks Groove will be left in the orphanage.

As no one will be that desperate for a child.

What about the kids of heterosexual parents who get teased because their daddy has another girlfriend?

Do you think children are born thinking these things? children dont care, they are taught that things are 'wrong' and 'different' they dont form those views themselves (usually) there are different variations of normal and it would be a much better world if these variations were accepted instead of attacked.....

...and all the kid has to do is threaten the bullies that "my dad will get your dad". Some of the todger do.....I mean 'women with same sex partners' that I know would more than hold their own in a fight with a man.
 
My concern would be that the child would grow up thinking that being gay is "normal" and are more likely to grow up to become gay themselves. In a similar way to fact that if a child's parents smoke the child is more likely to take up smoking as they see it as the "norm".

Gay children are the product of heterosexual parents.

How come they don't grow up aping the sexual orientation of their parent/role models?

Is it perhaps that sexual orientation is genetically preordained, like height, eye-colour, or level of stupidness?

People are born gay.

Just as some are born thick.

Since we can't decide on our height, or hair colour, the sexual orientation a person's born with, is the 'norm'.

Whatever that might be.

Maybe in most cases, but when I was a kid I lived up the top of Fielding Lane and on a farm near us lived a farmer, his wife and thier two sons. One son was your typical strapping farm lad, the other, younger son was as gay as a lord. My mum was friends with the farmers wife and she told her that when the second son was born she really wanted a girl and for the first few years of his life he was basically brought up as a girl even to the point of wearing dresses and playing with girls toys. Could be just a coincidence but I'm not so sure.

Mavis Davis wonders why some people don't do a simple search, using the handy forum search facility, so we don't replicate subjects that have been discussed in depth already.
