No, and gay couples should not be able to adopt children

gay couples should be able to adopt children the same way it’s okay for straight couples to adopt i don’t see anything wrong with a gay couple adopting

everyone should be able to adopt children and their gender should not matter. everyone should have the right to take care and give love to children, especially those who are in need of homes.

People want to adopt a child, no matter what the sex is of the parents. Kids get to have a loving home and caring parents to love this child.

As long as the couple are safe people that can be trusted with children. I don't see why it would effect their rights to adopt.

This is the most horrendous thing I've ever heard, if two people who love each other want to parent a child who didn't have a homes in the first place.LET THEM

Well the LGBTQ have the same rights, and they are the same human being and what if your parent were trans or lesbian and adopted a kid.

I’ll types of people should be aloud to adopt a child as long as they grow up in a stable environment and have the same opportunities as every one else.

They are the same as straight couples, they act no different. Anyone can be a bad parent, just because someone is gay doesn’t mean they would be a bad parent.

The right to adoption should be based on your ability to properly raise a child and to bring a functioning, capable adult into our world. Not a couple's sex, or sexual orientation.

Gay couples should absolutely be able to adopt children and be treated equally in the application process.

There is no difference between you and someone who is gay except that they like someone who is the same gender.

The evidence overwhelmingly supports that the sexual orientation of parents, whether gay or straight, has no adverse effect on the well-being and development of adopted children, highlighting the importance of granting LGBT couples the same adoption rights as their heterosexual counterparts.

Why not? They have to go through the same system as straight parents who couldn't have kids. To make sure the home is safe.

If both gay and straight couples were allowed to adopt children, less children would be alone, and more children would be given another chance at a family. Peoples’ ability to parent does not become lower or higher depending on their sexuality. A straight couple may have more trouble parenting a child than a gay couple.

That's stupid, anyone should be able to be parents regardless of their sexual orientation and those without parents would be given the right to having a parent.

We are all human and every human has the right to have a child until proven unfit. It shouldn't matter what type of relationship someone is in, it doesn't affect you.

LGBTQ+ people are still people, just because a couple has two men or two women or whatever, does not reflect their ability to raise children. They are people just as straight people are. Straight people can still be bad parents, and gay people can be good parents. I think background checks should be run to assure that a couple is a good fit to be parents, no matter what their sexuality or gender is.

The only difference between a straight couple and a gay couple is the gender of the second parent. The adoption system already has tons of kids in it, why should a child be denied a family just because the parents are the same gender?

Why does the sexuality of a person affect if they are able to adopt a child? There is nothing that states that straight couples raise children better than same sex partners.

Gay couples should be allowed to adopt children because they have the same interests as a straight couple when it comes to wanting to adopt a child to strt a family.

100% of the adopted people of the LGBT have come out. This means the parents are putting wicked thoughts into the adopted mind.

A gay couple could want a child just as much as a straight couple wants one, and the fact that a couple is gay should not effect the process of adopting children in any way.

Then you need to adopt all those children yourself, or we need better funding for abortion clinics, healthcare, and adoption centres.

More children are given homes instead of having to live in an adoption centre/foster homes for most of their life.

A gay couple should be able to adopt children. This is an act of discrimination, and a gay couple should be able to provide the loving and safe home in which a straight couple can.

Preventing same-sex couples from adopting a child is an act of discrimination based upon religious belief. There is no evidence to support that a child is at risk of harm because the parents adopting them are same-sex. Imposing religious beliefs upon any persons is a violation of human rights and is unethical. Simple as that.
But if you want to talk about morality, prevention of care to a child based upon a predicated "sacred law" is immoral and only furthers the "us vs them" hatred cycle.
And if you want to talk about authority, Jesus frequently and publicly rebuked the religious leaders of his time for doing exactly that. Imposing rules and feeling superior because they thought they were being more "righteous" by following them.

If they want children and can provide a loving and caring environment for their adopted children, then of course they should be able too. They are still people and should be allowed the same rights as straight couples.
