Homosexual Parenting is Devastating to Children

Stephanie Pappas, writing for LiveScience.com, recently penned an article titled, “Why Gay Parents May Be the Best Parents” (2012). In that article she attempted to make the case that same-sex couples provide an environment that is better for raising children than the environment provided by heterosexual couples. To bolster her case, she cited various studies, quoted numerous “experts,” and fleshed out the details with copious statistics. Her thinly veiled attempt to appear unbiased about the issue is extremely transparent, and her clear agenda to advance tolerance for homosexuality, in spite of its real impact on society, was evident.

Consider this. God created humans in His likeness. When He did, He made them “male and female” and designed the first home (Genesis 2:22-24). This divinely ordained, man-woman relationship has been the pillar of every productive society in the history of mankind. Furthermore, since God created humans, and knows precisely what is best for their well-being, only He would be in a position to know which type of parenting situation, same-sex or heterosexual, would be best for rearing children. Not only did He establish the family to be headed by heterosexual parents, but He consistently condemned the homosexual lifestyle as sinful, admonishing homosexuals to repent (Butt, 2003). Therefore, since same-sex parents are openly rebelling against God, and providing ......

I can’t imagine a worse scenario growing up. Two puff butts for parents?

It’s a wrongful act period.

Parents are supposed to be 1 Man and 1 WOMAN.

How much did THIS ‘study’ cost .... which I’m sure was re-newed annually, under slightly different ‘titles’ ???

Wherever homosexuals congregate, there are abominable crimes against children. Politically incorrect to state, but true nevertheless. The next goal of the gay agenda will be to abolish age of consent laws.

Do an internet search for domestic battery and than read sites devoted to gays and lesbians. Domestic battery among gays and lesbians is much, much higher than normal people. On one site I saw a statistic claiming 85% of all domestic battery cases are gays and lesbians.

Would it better for a kid to live in an orphanage or a gay or lesbian household? I really don’t know...

Well, if homosexual parenting is so beneficial to children, why hasn’t anyone informed that infamous bigot, Mother Nature?

Good article, from the scriptural standpoint - which isn't to be taken lightly; indeed, it may the the only ultimate standpoint to consider.

But, for the religion poohpoohers out there, there are mountains of evidence to restrict child rearing to two biological parents. Regnerus's study was just the latest to show significant ultimate differences in children exposed to homosexuality. If allowed to be pursued, there will be many more studies which show what abuse this amounts to.

My sister divorced her husband, immediately entered into a lesbian relationship with her two daughters in tow. One became a prostitute at age 12 and is still on the edge of the law even though she is in her early 30's and married with children now. The second daughter has become an over-nourished (like mom) lesbian as well.

I think role models are important. Children usually end up acting like those role models or parents. Ouch.

I think I’d rather have two drug dealers as parents, as long as they are a man and a woman.

To us they are innocent children.

To perverts they are potential (or actual) sex toys.

To the liberal government, children are only important when they can be used in some way to advance the liberal agenda, as a commodity to pay off liberal voting blocs, to help liberals amass power or money, or to use against conservatives in various ways.

Can we use Paris Jackson as an example?

Most homosexuals and supporters I know are chain smokers as well. What a dilemma, with the vicious attacks by the Left against smoking - are they now going to have to betray, by association, their darling political class pets?

I knew a lesbian couple who, presumably through artificial insemination, had a male child. Once when the boy was acting up as toddlers do one of the “parents” made a remark...”that’s just how men are...out of control”. I can’t imagine that poor boy growing up in a household where such anti-male thinking prevailed. I’m sure his life was totally screwed up.

One thing we can be sure of about Paris Jackson. whoever provided the sperm it wasn’t Michael Jackson.

He can dye himself but he cannot wash the black out of his sperm.

I have heard hetero women say much worse about men in front of children.

I am sorry to hear of this. We had a similar story, but at least the kids were “grown” when she left. It is perplexing and sad.

I too would have liked to see this author use more social science research, especially --- as you mentioned --- Regnerus.

But it is revealing to see what criteria the feminists/queer theorists use to determine that a childraising outcome is "better."

I'm just rattling this off from the top of my head, but from the research I've read, the following descriptors counted in the "better" category for kids raised by homosexuals, followed by my translation:

You get the picture.

hen I come across a few of these articles, I'll post them with comments.

Pray for these kids, and for our disintegrating culture.

How about being a young male being raised by two man hating dykes?
