July 19, 2012 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Elton John said in an interview this week that it will be “heartbreaking” for his son to grow up without a mom.
Elton and his homosexual partner David Furnish got ‘married’ in 2005, and, after trying unsuccessfully to adopt a child in Ukraine, arranged for a boy child, Zachary, to be born to a surrogate mother in 2010.
John admitted to Matt Lauer on NBC Today, “It’s going to be heartbreaking for him to grow up and realise he hasn’t got a mummy.”
John said he is also worried about when Zachary goes to preschool and other children ask him why he doesn’t have a mom. He said that he and Furnish would like to have another child so Zachary doesn’t have go through it alone.
Gwen Landolt of REAL Women of Canada told LifeSiteNews: “If he’s concerned about it then why on earth is he adopting the child knowing the child is going to have a difficult life with much more complications than a child” with heterosexual parents?
Interestingly when similar observations to John’s are made by non-homosexuals they are often met by overt hostility.
Earlier this year a 14-year-old girl received death threats after she told Maryland Senate Judicial Proceedings Committee, “I really feel bad for the kids who have two parents of the same gender. Even though some kids think it’s fine, they have no idea what kind of wonderful experiences they miss out on.” She spoke to the Committee asking them to vote ‘no’ to a gay marriage proposal.
Several studies on homosexual parenting have concluded that there are no ill effects to a child with homosexual parents. However, according to a report published in 2005 by HazteOir, Spanish Forum for the Family, and the Institute for Family Policy, most of these studies have been done by homosexual activists, using small selective populations and reports from parents instead of children.
The report, entitled “Report on Infantile Development in Same-Sex Couples”, contradicts the other studies. It says that among children raised by same-sex couples there are significant increases in low self-esteem, stress, sexual identity confusion, an increase in mental illness, drug use, promiscuity, STD’s, and homosexual behaviour.
A new study on homosexual parenting, by University of Texas professor Mark Regnerus, was published this month in Social Science Research. It has been hailed as a ‘gold standard’ study because of its use of a large, random sample with responses from children instead of parents. Areas Regnerus examined include rates of employment, voting, suicide, fidelity in relationships, and sexual abuse. The study’s findings show that children with heterosexual parents fare better, in a number of areas than those with homosexual parents.
For the findings of his research Regenerus has been subject to complaints by homosexual activists and is now under investigation by the University of Texas.
Landolt says parenting by homosexual couples is “looking to the so-called rights of the adult not the best interests of the child. A child needs a mother and a father and that’s the only way they can learn about the gender differences in which the whole world functions.”
Homosexuals treating children like pets is selfish and mentally deranged. They shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near children.
Earth calling the selfish homosexual jerk named Elton John - that’s what happens when homos choose an abhorrent lifestyle to legally (though immorally) raise a child...
> Elton John says its ‘heartbreaking’ that son will grow up
> without a mom
Didn’t he sing a song titled “Don’t Go Breaking My Heart”? Well he’s done it to himself now.
Actions have consequences.
Song Meaning:
“Bernie Taupin’s lyric refers to a time in 1969, before John was a popular musician, when John was engaged to be married to his girlfriend, Linda Woodrow.
John and Woodrow were sharing a flat with Taupin in Furlong Road in the East End of London, hence the opening line “When I think of those East End lights.”
While having serious doubts about the looming marriage, John contemplated suicide. He took refuge in his friends, especially Long John Baldry, who convinced John to abandon his plans to marry in order to salvage and maintain his musical career.
As a sign of his respect and gratitude for Baldry, Taupin wrote him into the song as the “someone” in the title, and also as “Sugar Bear”.
Some radio stations banned or altered the song, due to the use of the words “damn it” in the second verse.”

Is that what they call “conflicted”?
I'll bet that we have another "Chaz" in the making.But then who would expect anything else to come from that utterly worthless "father"?
Poor Elton, it’s all so confusing, isn’t it?
songmeanings.net
How creative for somebody to have thought about such a website.
Heartbreaking that he won’t have a father either
Let’s compound the problem by introducing another, “motherless” child to commiserate with the first one. This is total selfishness!
That is the whole world of gays. All about ME
Maybe Elton had a mommy?
And so - having children often causes us to reflect upon our own childhoods.
I keep this in mind when I hear homosexuals argue gay marriage is “just as” beneficial - “just as” normative as heterosexual marriage.
Some I know personally come from homes where they, themselves, were raised by a loving mom and dad.
I don’t think they truly believe,deep down, they are providing “just as” good an environment as they received.
Points for seeing the obvious
I know, what a narcissistic old queen. Pray for the poor child.
I'm glad I didn't figure this out till much later - as a 15 year old I played the crap out of that album.
I pray that this is the Holy Spirit at work in Elton's life.
He’s “got a mummy.”
Sadly she donated him to two faggots to raise.
faggots must suck at arithmetic too since even if they did have another kid, it would be 3 to 4 years younger than the first one and BOTH would have to go through it alone...
