LGBT and ADOPTION

This time, I've posted my blog on, " LGBT and ADOPTION".

LGBT adoption is the adoption of by the same-sex couples, lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT), who are just of course, human beings as we are and their preferences are their personal choices and reasons too. I don't interfere in their way of living, this is their right.

Gay Marriages are being legalized in many countries and some allow the LGBT couples to adopt to form a family. Many think that Same sex marriage should be legalized not only for the decrease in foster , but to finally take a stand.

Everyday, teens of different sexuality other than "straight" are harassed, bullied, and tormented every single day in school, on the roads and everywhere. By legalizing same sex marriage, upcoming generations will be raised surrounded by marriages of man and woman, man and man, and woman with woman. Some of their friends parents could be gay, their teacher, family members, or friends. The legalization would make being a member of the LGBT not as "weird" or "gross" but more common and normal, just as a man and woman. This would also drop the bullying rates against , teens and adults who are of different sexuality.

OBJECTION TO AND SUPPORT FOR THE LGBT ADOPTION
Adoption of by LGBT people is an issue of active debate. In many countries for example, legislation to stop the practice has been introduced in many jurisdictions; such efforts have largely been defeated. There is agreement between the debating parties, however, that the welfare of alone should dictate policy.

Supporters of LGBT adoption suggest that many are in need of homes and claim that since parenting ability is unrelated to sexual orientation, the law should allow them to adopt .

Opponents, on the other hand, suggest that the alleged greater prevalence of depression, drug use, promiscuity and suicide among homosexuals (and alleged greater prevalence of domestic violence) might affect or that the absence of male and female role models during a 's development could cause maladjustment.

But Charlotte J. Patterson, PhD, a psychology professor and researcher said that New research shows that adopted into LGBT families are as well-adjusted as adopted by heterosexual parents and follow similar patterns of gender development.

The researchers found that the of LGBT persons, were virtually indistinguishable from of heterosexual parents. She points out that while numerous studies have documented patterns of healthy development among born from these parents.

The research indicates that policies that forbid LGBT couples from adopting, need to be re-examined, hence to give chance to them and to thousands foster as well.

What are your personal views in this issue?.
Your participation would be very much appreciated.
I thank you in anticipation
Lisa.

Hi Lisa: Interesting topic. I was watching a segment on CNN yesterday about some country where it's still against the law to be gay or lesbian. I think it was India, but I'm not sure. I think everyone should be able to love whoever they love, get married if they want to, and have kids or adopt kids. Just because a child's parents are a man and a woman, there's no evidence that the child will be any more or less well adjusted than if the parents were two people of the same sex.

Hi Bijou,

Delighted reading from you on this topic and thank you for your visit and for your nice comments. Glad to have your opinion on the theme too. Yes, not all countries have made LGBT legal yet, specially those who are fundamental in their religion.
I believe too that growing kids depends on the real feelings of those with whom they are growing them up
and accordingly the kid/s will be treated.
Thank you again Bijou, let's wait for the others' comments too.
Have a nice day.
Lisa.

Bijou,

Coming back to reply your second comment, good that your country has made it legal for these people. In my country, we do have several of them, though not very many and they are in one association call Rainbow and the Gov, has registered them also and recognizes their status as well.
As I have mentioned on my blog, so many are being bullied too much. Just imagine if one from one's family is one of these people, would he likes to be regarded as an odd person and to be bullied or tormented each day?, Would his own parents be happy for it?, I don't think so Bijou.
Thanks again for this info.
My best regards to you.
Lisa.

I should really congratulate you, being a single mother, be sure you are not the only one Spunky, it's not a shame being a single mother, this proves you have the real deep mother love, caring for your child and the reason for being such, is your personal privacy eventually. You must be sacrificing many things for the welfare of your child. Thank you for this Spunky.

Looklook dear,

How glad I am reading your views on this blog of mine. Thank you greatly for your visit and for your nice comments. You are right stating that you have no problem living with such couples or beside them, I do appreciate your comments, as I said they are eventually human beings as we are, even with their differences which shouldn't bother us really. We should just leave then living in peace in their own way.
Thanks again Looklook, hope reading from you always. Wishing you a joyful day.
With all my best.
Lisa.
