The psychologists found very few differences among the children at any of the assessments over the two-year period following placement.
A two year study by liberal academia, wow, that's like a mathematical proof. LOL.
As I said before as a product of a single parent home, man/woman is ideal for emotional development. It's how we evolved. I don't see how any two year study of children would show that.
I don't care about anyone's right to adopt, what's best for the kid is man/woman. So qualified man/woman should get government driven adoptions over single or gay. Once all qualified man/woman are fulfilled, then I don't really care if gays adopt. Gays I have heard have adopted a lot of hard to place children. I can't prove that, it's just what I heard and I'm not interested enough to research.
You claim you're not a bigot but you sure argue like one. Can you counter the study with another study? Anything?
What parenting skill requires either gender?
Role models------------------------------teaching a boy to be a man and a girl to be a woman. Its not complicated, its biological. Can a butch lesbian teach a boy what it means to be a man? Can a gay man teach a girl what it means to be a woman? I think not.
There are endless studies on that. Fathers have a lot to do with the security and confidence of children of both sexes. The mother with a sense of unconditional love and belonging Any parent sees kids who get an owie run to their mother if they have a choice to get a hug. When they want to play and be challenged, the father.
Now in healthy relationships, they go to the other parent when the primary one for that purpose is not there. But the roles are clear and any observant, knowledgeable person would see that not having both would not be ideal. Two mothers or two fathers do not fill both roles. They fill one role twice. It's like having two pitchers or two catchers instead of a pitcher and a catcher.
