Gay Parenting Information
Gay parenting has been an important issue over the past few years. Over 34% of lesbian mothers have at least one child residing in their home and 22% of gay men have at least one child living with them. Together there are 6 to 10 million gay parents that are caring for between 6 and 14 million children.
The American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Academy of Family Physicians, the Child Welfare League of America, the National Association of Social Workers, and the American Psychological Association all recognize that families headed by gays or lesbians can be run exactly the same as heterosexual headed families.
Homophobic bullying is a recurring problem that homosexual couples may have to face. Some religious groups see homosexuality as wrong, and do not support gay parenting.
No studies prove that gay parenting hinders a child’s ability to grow psychologically. Gay parents can teach a child to have more tolerance for diversity and perhaps break down several of societies stereotypes against homosexuals. The only type of problem a child would possibly have to face is bullying by peers in school. Studies have not shown that children raised in a homosexual environment become homosexual themselves. Evidence does not show that homosexuals raise children in an unfit environment.

would have done (my children just never took a pacifier) and

Boston Marathon—bring up feelings of fear and uncertainty:
uncertainty about the state of humanity, about life and death, and,
if we’re parents or guardians, about how we help our children come
to terms with it all. When we ourselves are feeling anxious and
afraid, we may wonder

Anyone with children in middle school or above surely have dealt
with head lice in their own household or received that once or
twice a year note from the school nurse stating lice “has been
found on the head of one your child’s classmates.” In fact, I even
