Has anybody asked the children?
In all these studies of gay parenting, it seems that nobody has asked the children what kind of family structure they want. I would be interested in a survey of orphans asking them if they want a mother and a father, two moms, two dads, a single mom, a single dad, or it doesn’t matter. My hunch is most orphans want both a mother and a father.
Do we really think they don’t know what they’re talking about, and we will “re-educate” them to accept the two Dads they’re getting even if they really want a mother’s touch?
I’d like to ask the children what they want, at try to respect that in placing them in homes.
