All over the world there are children waiting to be adopted. However, in some US states same-sex couples are not allowed to adopt them, while many heterosexual couples who are ineligible to raise a child are allowed to keep them and abuse their children. I am of the opinion that only people who can actually care for a child should be allowed to have one, and if same-sex couples want to adopt them, they should be allowed to do so. For example, I have seen many children who were burned or beaten by their parents; parents who physically abuse their children are obviously unfit to care for children and should not be allowed to restrain them. So, which parents can have children? The answer is simple: Parents who can care for their children emotionally and fiscally should be allowed to have them, regardless of their sexual orientation. In a parent-child relationship, the most important person is the child. If a child without parents will have a better life if adopted, it shouldn't matter whether the person adopting him or her is heterosexual, homosexual, or bisexual. The question to consider should be whether the child will have a loving and caring home with his adoptive parents. Love for children should be the same as for heterosexual parents, and there is no evidence that homosexual couples are bad parents. Even though it is not the same for children to have two men or two women as parents, they will still love their children, and that is what really matters when it comes to the needs of children. For example, same-sex couples will pay more attention to their children, go to games or any after-school activities because they want their children to know that they love and care about them. Opponents of this view say... paper ......g the same blood or the same sex are not what constitutes a family; a family is formed through care, love and respect, and that is what same-sex parents give to their children. For example, I have a gay friend and he grew up in a traditional family. However, his parents never accepted him as he was and always tried to make him change. Some people may argue that who can prove that a homosexual will mistreat their child. It doesn't matter whether one is heterosexual or homosexual, we are good parents; homosexuals tend to be better parents than traditional parents. Having two moms or two dads will not confuse the child, what confuses the child is growing up in a bad parental home. Being a good parent means taking care of your child, providing him with food and clothing, and loving him with all your heart; there are no rules that say you have to be straight to be a good parent.
