Yes they do? They will take the social attitude of their parents mostly and imitate their values and beliefs. If a parent says that 'all homosexuals will burn in Hell' and a child with same-sex parents comes to the school, this would have no impact on the child? It's true that it wouldn't bother them as much as it would society, as the victim would just be another person to have control over but to disregard social attitudes when the bully is surrounded by them sounds wrong to me. Can you elaborate because maybe I misunderstood?Quote:

Maybe they will get bullied, maybe they won't but everyone gets bullied over something and a child should not be denied a home just because a couple are the same sex. A solid family structure is not restricted to heterosexual couples and to deny a same sex couple of a child would also be denying the child to a possible (not 100% but still possible) good future.
You cannot be forced into being gay, yet again you do not have a clue what you are talking about, let alone what planet we are on.Quote:

I know for a fact if a child has same-sex parents he'll be deprived of a normal childhood through no fault of his own. These issues take time, no awful government advert, education program or rights act will stop it. It comes from the peers and the parents, and it is something which will eventually be phased out, mainly with this upcoming generation now.Quote:

Of course I know how people can be sensitive but not every child is. There are many children in the care of social services who would very much like to have a family and it's insensitive to not give them that priviledge, regardless of the sexuality of the parents.Quote:

so nice try
I'm afraid that doesn't stand up, theres no way a child who has gay parents would suddenly become attracted to boys just because his parents are gay. If that was the case, we wouldn't have any gay people because they all have straight parents, meaning in your logic they would also be straight.Quote:

Actually you said..Quote:
