Maybe not. I certainly don't have it. But I would first point to nature as a clue to how children develop. I'm sure studies will be done. I don't think that it would necessarily be harmful for child to be raised in a gay family. But the children may develop differently. Maybe not. Freud would probably have loved to study it. I still think that a mother and father have the healthiest home for kids, but everyone develops differently anyway. Its important for children to have a maternal figure in their lives as it is important for them to have a paternal figure in their lives. Healthy kids can develop almost anywhere, so I'm not too worried about it.
