A study recently looked at the effects of same-sex parenting and it’s effects on kids, the results were surprising to some: it does children good.
While the results seem to be more surprising to those who are firm in their belief that homosexuality should effect children and kids negatively, the results show that the children raised in same-sex households fair better than their more traditionally raised counterparts.
Adolescent children of lesbians “rated significantly higher in social, school/academic, and total competence and significantly lower in social problems, rule-breaking, aggressive, and externalizing problem behavior than their age-matched counterparts,” the study concluded.
This flies in the face of public opinion against same-sex marriage and parenting. Conventional wisdom holds that a married heterosexual couple is the model for raising kids. And some zealots taunt us by saying, “God made Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve” — or in this case, “Eve and Eve.” But the claim that married heterosexuals make the best parents — or the converse, that same-sex parents can`t do a good job — is no longer sustainable.
