Thesis Statement Against Gay Adoption

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.
Nowadays, the homosexual people are coming into public view and are accepted by more and more people. It has attracted much concern to improve and protect their rights, such as the Gay-Right Movement which refers

The young generation is the hope of future. Whenever related to children, there will be a heated discussion. Advocators of gay adoption first of all believe that children adoption is an equal right for gay couples and it can not be discriminatory only because of their sexual orientation.

Another objection is that children will have a sexual-orientation problem or become homosexual when they grow up. In order to overthrow this view, an amount of studies show that children grow up in same-sex family are most live normal lives and have less
