That's a silly excuse for not letting someone adopt. Should we not let funny-looking people adopt, or people with funny-sounding last names? Face it, kids will find something to tease other kids about regardless of their family situation.

Why would this be any more complicated than any other adopted child tracking down their bio parents? Often, gay couples adopt very openly and the bio mother at least knows of the situation. Again, potential complication is no reason to deny a child a loving home.
