Adoption is very close to my heart, as I was adopted myself. There are SO many children out there that in need of a loving forever home.... so what's all the fuss from so many people about having issues with lesbian and gay couples adopting? As we learned in this weeks lesson, children who are raised by lesbian or gay parents are NO different from children who are raised in heterosexual homes. I came across this video clip of an interview with a lesbian couple, who already has a son and are on the waiting list for a new baby girl or boy! The ladies in the video say that they have been extremely lucky throughout their whole relationship an through the decisions to have children together... they report having no hostility. Why can't all lesbian and gay couples be treated with the same respect? It takes a big heart to adopt a child. The couple in this interview say that their motivation comes from having a family where they can offer something for a child and give them a loving home to grow up in. Isn't that what it's all about? Providing for and loving a child in a healthy home for the rest of their life? So props to the community where this couple and their family live for being SO accepting of their love and their decisions.
