Question

How does same-s*x "marriage" put children at risk?

Answer 1

idk because either way children are at risk  

Answer 2

I have four children.  They are not t all at risk of what some other adults are doing in their bedroom.  How would they be?

Answer 3

I see that their are a lot of opinions both ways. But most of these are "political" in nature or "religious". The truth is that same s*x marriages have not been around long enough for any really scientific research and the best kind of research for this question are what are called longitudinal ones. A team of unbiased researchers with no agendas would need to follow some children of same s*x marriages with frequent psychological, educational, etc. observations and testing over a long term span, perhaps in to their adulthood. Then the frequency of mental disorders, sexual identity problems, etc. could be compared to a random sample of children raised in traditional homes, divorced homes, etc. to see if there are a higher incidence of problems. Certainly, just like kids from mixed race marriages used to have a problem with insults at school, I "suspect" very strongly that these same-s*x children will have some trouble as well with their peer group. The answer to your question from a scientific point of view has yet to be answered.

Answer 4

It doesn't.

What puts children at risk are the narrow-minded idiots who make wrong assumptions.

Answer 5

if two people love each it's ok to marry. but children might feel left out because they might have two dads or two moms instead of one of each. they may feel embarrassed.

Answer 6

I don't think it does.I think Heterosexual marriage puts kids at risk because the first g*y children had straight parents.

Answer 7

It can s***w up their mind when you have someone telling them they don't have to have heterosexual relationship. I see this as recruitment into a lifestyle that is a choice.

Answer 8

I have no idea.  It is just people trying to push their own religious values in society. I think children of abusive parents are more at risk. or the ones who are sexually abused or abandoned or beaten or told that they are worthless, those are the children who are at risk. I'm not g*y myself but i don't think there is anything wrong with two people raising a child together. especially when they give that child a structured safe environment to grow up in

Answer 9

It dosen't.

All kids get picked on about something.

The most important thing is to be with someone you love. The rest will fall into place. If you are in a loving, healthy relationship your children will see that and in turn they will be happy.

Answer 10

They won't take the Bible seriously, which could possibly take away money from the church in the future.  If James Dobson can't buy a new Mercedes each month, then what would the world come to?

Answer 11

Laughed at school.

The kid won't know who moms or dad.

Embrassed >.>
