Gay couples adopting children
My mother has a male friend who is gay. This man was in a 12 year marriage in which he and his wife had a daughter. He is person that makes it a point to let everyone know wherever he is that he such. After the divorce his daughter lived between the two of them. Last week his daughter told the mother she was gay. Now the mother is infuriated feeling she won’t have grandchildren and blames the father for instilling this lifestyle in his daughter.
I personally have nothing against someone that chooses to be gay. (Yeah I’m one of the persons that believe it’s a choice vs. an inherited gene). I can’t say I exactly have any close gay friends, but each to their own as far as I’m concerned. Something I do feel split on are gay couples adopting children. I have this picture of 2 gay males adopting a baby boy; my first thought is to disagree with it. I’m not stating that it would be a home without love or security, but would the outcome be predictable?
This post isn’t to state how things SHOULD be. I’m just looking for feedback to hearing other viewpoints and hopefully consider a view I may have not thought about. Thanks for the input. For any that are gay out there it’s not meant to offend.
