The research literature on childrearing by homosexual parents is limited. The environment in which children are reared is absolutely critical to their development. Given the current body of research, the American College of Pediatricians believes it is inappropriate, potentially hazardous to children, and dangerously irresponsible to change the age-old prohibition on homosexual parenting, whether by adoption, foster care, or by reproductive manipulation. This position is rooted in the best available science."


That's from 2004 when information on gays and children was shady at best. It's nine years later in 2013, I know people who were raised by gay couples and they aren't sexually confused at all. This notion that a child raised by a homosexual couple makes a child gay or confused is pure nonsense. Also last time I checked, gays aren't any more suicidal than straight people.
