Should Lgbtq Couples Be Able To Adoption?

Adoption is typically an option that is thought about when the process of conceiving a biological child is out of the question. For some couples it may be infertility, potential hereditary health problems, or that carrying a child would be dangerous to the mother and unborn child. Those are just some issues that would cause a heterosexual couple to contemplate the idea of adopting a child, but what about couples of the same-sex? Same-sex couples do not have the means to reproduce together so many opt for adoption, which sounds easy, but typically is not. Adoption is a long and hard drawn out process for any couple, but for couples that are of the same-sex, they typically get the shorter end of the stick. Most people believe that for a child

I) Introduction – The Foster Care system and Homosexual’s being able to adopt both show through research to provide many benefits to a child in need. Although neither seems to be the best option, people seem to have rooted for one more than the other due to sexual orientation, but what for? Doesn’t both foster care and homosexual adoption provide love and care for children or is one more suitable for children than the other? Through personal research it seems as if Homosexual’s adopting children is just as good as a child remaining in the Foster Care system (Claim). II)

This type of problem isn’t really one with causes, effects, and solutions, but one with pros and cons. Like any other adoption situation, a parent prove themselves to be responsible and capable enough to raise a child on their own, or with a spouse. This problem or issue is one that is proving to be a bigger one than many people most likely expected. In Today’s more liberal society, homosexuality seeing more acceptance than ever before. Homosexuals and heterosexuals alike have parental instincts and are as interested in beginning families and raising children.

There is always a family waiting to adopt a cute baby to call their own. It’s also a better solution because you’re giving someone who actually wants a baby, a baby. You’re giving a child a better future to grow up with parents that actually love him or her. According to American Adoptions, there has been “1 adoption for every 149 abortions”. This shows how many lives been killed other then that one life that has been given a better future.

The foster system has been failing these kids since it was created. Why has nothing productive been done to help reform this clearly broken system? The need for foster care has only increased since its introduction to America in 1912, but the care it provides has only become worse. This system was created to help the poor kids, the kids who are left at a disadvantage and are not provided with the

Gay adoption is the adoption of children by same sex couples. Based on this topic, I’d like to look into the question “Are children adopted by gay parents more likely to have the psychological problem?” And the thesis I stated is that gay couples are able to provide a warm and normal environment for adopted children to grow up. I want to focus on this topic from the current situation of gay adoption, gay couples are capable of raising children and children adopted by gay parents are the same as those who born in heterosexual families.

There are many children that are stuck in the foster care system because they do not have a biological family or an adoptive

Adoption is a way for children who cannot be cared for by their birth parents to become members of another family. In most countries,, children are raised by one or both parents. sometimes both parents cannot provide the love and care their child's needs. “The parents may be young and not prepare or financially-to

Single parent adoption In today's society, one of the strongest controversy in the world today is over whether or not single parents should be allowed to adopt. Some believe it is socially acceptable for a single parent to adopt a child and that “single prospective adopters of both genders can have much to offer to an adopted child” (The Telegraph Tim Ross), others think that singles should not be able to adopt. In some eyes they see that a child needs two parents so a child can grow up having a mother and father figure to look up to, and by having two parents, one can fill in the other part when one is sick or tired or so on.

This heavy financial cost, extensive time span, and turmoil that it takes to go through adopting a child in the U.S is taking away from couples and individuals dreams of having a fair chance of being able to raise a family of their own some

Now to the pro side of all of this it is good for the people adopting the kid it gives them a chance to love something that maybe the can 't have or at least giving them a shot at being parents and it will give the kid a second chance to. The kid can bond with them the kid will feel loved and so will the parents no matter who you are you should always feel like someone is there for and thats what these parents are tryna do for these kids “If you have no kids, wait until your foster kids call you Mom and Dad for the first time. It is an awesome feeling and you will never look at life the same. There is no love like that of a child’s where they depend on you for so much.” I feel that this quote/saying is basically understanding the meaning of a new start like how every mother gets to feel that special little sense of love when they hear their baby 's first cry ,and the baby 's first word.

Fifty percent of all youth who aged out were involved in substance use and 17% of the females were pregnant (http://ccainstitute.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&id=25&layout=blog&Itemid=43). In the U.S. 397,122 children are living without permanent families in the foster care system. 101,666 of these children are eligible for adoption, but nearly 32% of these children will wait over three years in foster care before being adopted (AFCARS report, No. 20). Pulling a child out of their home to place them in a foster care service with these types of statistics is unsettling. How would any of these findings promote the “best interests of the

Protecting the child and provide an opportunity in which they will live a close to normal life is the goal. But with so many children in foster care and so little workers, children can be over looked. How can a child live in foster care their whole life? “It has been long stated and strongly held belief that foster care must not be a way of life for children, but rather that it is intended as a short-term treatment measure which, for the children’s welfare, must eventuate in their return to their parents or in legal adoption” (Kline,1972,p.51). Children eventually need to be put into long term, permanent homes.

H.R.2449 was introduced on May 5,2015. According to www.congress.gov, Every Child Deserves a Family Act will “prohibit adoption or foster care placement service entities that receive federal assistance (or that contract with entities receiving such assistance) from using the sexual orientation, gender identity, or marital status of a prospective adoptive or foster parent, or from using the sexual orientation or gender identity of the child, to: (1) deny a person the opportunity to become an adoptive or foster parent; (2) delay or deny the placement of a child for adoption or into foster care; or (3) require different or additional screenings or procedures for adoptive or foster placement decisions, including whether to seek the termination of birth parent rights or to make a child legally available for adoptive

The issues that children face today are intense and tremendous. These issues continue with discrimination in adoption. These people see by color instead of the child. The love for a child should not matter by the color of their skin, but by who they are. Children need loving homes with caring parents.
