quote:I think this goes back to my comment about promoting and incentivizing those ideal family units. It's not "worth it" for many couples to have their own kids much less adopt others. Perhaps if there were some better incentives things would be different.
there are over 100,000 kids that need adoption and that number has stayed consistent over the last decade. The fact is there aren't enough traditional families out there adopting kids for this to be a valid argument.
Culturally, I think we need to stop promoting homosexual parenting as equal to heterosexual parenting and it shouldn't be considered "hateful", "bigoted", or "homophobic" to suggest that our male/female couples should be striving to have more children and stay together for the sake of our future while advising against all other forms of "families" that don't promote the ideal.

In other words, if we care about the outcomes of children, then we should be focusing on the most important contributors of outcomes (well-adjusted, loving, stability, etc.).
So focusing a less significant contributor of those outcomes, regarding a variable that is less frequently occurring anyways, is counterproductive and misplaced.
