Unless California is a very strange State, you cannot legally adopt someone, under the age of majority, without a personal investigation into your personal life. Do social anti-Conservatives--or whatever those who do not respect societal values, want to be called--propose to do away with all background checks of adoptive parents?
The issue here is not intrusion into private lives, but whether the State can protect children from being put into a bizarre home situation. The aggression as to this issue does not come from the Conservatives (the adjective social really adds little, if anything), but from those who think it all right to raise children with a distorted view of life and sexuality, in total rejection of values developed over millennia, where they are likely to be used in the manner that the perverts in Sodom proposed to use Lott's Angelic visitors.
What possible objection can any reasonable person have to pinning a candidate for Governor down on such an extreme issue?

So you don't think adoption should involve any kind of intrusion into people's private lives?
