Who Cares About the Children of Gay Parents?
• Homophobia
Senator Patricia Miller wanted to make it impossible for gay couples to have children. Before being allowed "assisted reproduction" the prospective parents would have had to prove a 'wholesome' lifestyle including work for church activities.
If you’re so concerned about children and their well-being, senator, why aren’t you and other sanctimonious Republicans—as well as so-called “pro-family” lobbying groups such as James Dobson’s Focus on the Family and Louis Sheldon’s Traditional Values Coalition—campaigning for programs and legislation that would provide social and legal recognition, economic security and health care benefits to the 8 to 10 million children currently being reared in families headed by same-sex parents? Or perhaps your “concern” and their “pro-family” claims are nothing more than steaming bovine-produced fertilizer.
