Reason for deletion: let's keep the one member of MT VS another member of MT crap in the relevant thread only. Not that we actually need even one such, if you ask me. -

Some of you might remember that long conversation we had on pedophiles and homosexuals? And some of us raised some ethical concerns whether some of those latter couples being allowed to adopt little children in the near future? Well, yeah.

Adopting children? It's a weird / odd and difficult topic, you can say, the least. -

Don´t see it as an odd nor weird thing. Homoparental adoption is legal in Spain since 2005, being a couple from Barcelona the first one to adopt a child, back in 2006. -

It's legal in The Netherlands as well, I think from 2002 onwards?
While legally I cannot but applaud the continued leveling of relationships, there are continued suggestions out there that even if every other condition is met (unconditional love, proper education, clear moral values, et cetera) children that have both a male and a female rolemodel present during their upbringing are more stable psychologically and emotionally.
It's certainly a matter of interest and of closer inspection.
But annoyance?
No.
Not a bit.“The Bible contains six admonishments to homosexuals and 362 admonishments to heterosexuals. That doesn't mean that God doesn't love heterosexuals. It's just that they need more supervision.” ~ Lynn Lavner -

I actually agree with those concerns (role model presence), but I think it can be worked with. Don't tell me that gay people don't have good FRIENDS of the opposite sex who would help with the child's upbringing!http://www.filmmusic.pl - Polish Film Music Review Website -

It's one of those things where I suspect for the "pioneers" it's not going to be great - can you IMAGINE what it would be like for a kid at some inner-city state school whose parents are both of the same gender? - but after a generation or two it will be accepted. I can't think of any way it could be accepted other than just going ahead and doing it, now. -

Could you feel friends of the opposite sex (either your mother's or father's) as substitutes for your real mother and father when you were growing up? Even if they came and took care of you from time to time? Or did the baby-sitter ever substitute your mother for the matter? -

Some of the toughest people I know were raised by single parents. I can't really say how I would have found it (having gay parents and so not being exposed to one of each gender) because I didn't go through it - who knows. It's a tough one. -

I'm not sure if it's legal here, but I think it can be just one of the various types of today's families.
Homosexual or not, what matters is, if those "dads" (or "moms") have enough responsibility and ability to give care and love to the kids... it'd be better having two good dads (or moms) than having horrible mom and dad who don't have any responsibilityaka Pridelander -

Me too. Preferably not blood related. -

My nephew actually does.
My aunt is in a relationship with another woman, who gave birth to "their" son some twenty years ago.
(Of course he *is* their son in every single conceivable () way but the purely biologically-technically one).
He sure turned out pretty OK.
There are many formats of family (in the broadest sense: not just blood-related, but based on community-responsibility as well or extended families et cetera). My only issue is that I honestly think it's good for any child to have both a female and a male rolemodel.
But then that's an ideal situation.
As the case was made above, many kids raised by single parents have turned out just fine.“The Bible contains six admonishments to homosexuals and 362 admonishments to heterosexuals. That doesn't mean that God doesn't love heterosexuals. It's just that they need more supervision.” ~ Lynn Lavner -

My best friend, who was gone for a RTW, will leave on October for six months to Kenya.
Great for him of course, and I wholehaertly agree he should do this intership at the Belgian Embassy and UN. But things will be less varied again, he was the one who pushed us to do other things.
Anyhow, perhaps that's a reason to join him for a week or two?
What three C&C releases would you take to the little Island of Misfit Noise?
