Thought I'd make 1 more post, to make sure there is no confusion. Say a kid takes 10 resources a year to raise. He would normally have 2 parents producing for him, say each adult can produce 5 resources a year (bad year for food, business, whatever) so they can just barely raise him with the risk of only producing 9 resources that year and having their kid die or be malnurished. If the brother of the father or mother in that family unit is gay, and decides to live with them, there is now 3 adults caring for the child and they can now produce 15 resources a year and live much more comfortably, without the risk of death. Adding another kid in that equation would cost 20 resources a year and would not help.
