What issues do same-sex parents have to contend with that opposite-sex parents do not?

What do you think about children growing up with same-sex parents and about their mental health and adjustment?What issues do same-sex parents have to contend with that opposite-sex parents do not?Children living in same-sex households often grow and adjust the same as children with opposite sex parents. Sometimes the children in same-sex households grow up better adjusted for many reasons. The biggest reason is that since homosexual couples are not able to have children naturally, that means a child in their family is ALWAYS planned. You start out actually wanting to have a child. You plan and prepare for its arrival more thoroughly than a lot of straight couples are able to. Also, a lot of homophobes and bible humpers do not believe this, but homosexuals have the same morals as everyone else. Their children grow up having two loving parents who will never stop showing the child how much they are wanted. That is not always the case with other parents.What issues do same-sex parents have to contend with that opposite-sex parents do not?
Take the "couple" element out of the equation. many cultures raise their children by one-gender groups. All of them turn out fine, what may be different is merely their definition of what a couple can be. I think the biggest issue same-sex couples face is figuring out who will take on which role. Regardless of how you paint it, children need a masculine role model and a feminine role model. Me, i'd give anything to have been raised by two parents, regardless of their genders, but I wasn't. I think the impact it has on a same-sex couple child is noticeable but in noe way detrimental.What issues do same-sex parents have to contend with that opposite-sex parents do not?i think children with same sex parents can grow up and be completely normal and well adjusted. i think they'll probably have better self esteem because they know that their parents had them because they wanted them, not because of a mishap with contraception or something like that. and they will know that their parents will love them no matter what, because they have already dealt with their own struggles with being accepted.

the only problem i can see them encountering is the ignorance of the people around them, not because of anything to do with their family. they'll probably face judgment from other people and may be picked on in school for it, but as long as their parents address it in the proper way i don't see it affecting the kids too much

I have a friend with two mothers, but she is just the same as all the other girls. I mean, everybody is unique, but she isn't treated differently or acts differently or anything because of it. Her mothers are hilarious too :DWhat issues do same-sex parents have to contend with that opposite-sex parents do not?Oh my, why I believe every child deserves to be in a strong and stable family. That is, a family ordained by God. A family that goes to church. A family that gets along. A family that is always together. Yes, this is wonderfully true.
