Gay Adoption?

[Lady's Human]

I'd rather see a child with parents who care than a child sitting around waiting to be adopted.

It just doesn't make sense sometimes to eliminate possibly loving, caring parents based on minor criteria.

As long as two people have a stable,loving home to raise a child, then
it shouldn't matter. I've always believed the child can never get back the
time lost waiting to be loved & cared for in a personal way that only a
committed parent can provide.

The important thing is for children to have loving parents. Or even parent (singular).

To leave a child in foster care simply because a prospective parent is gay, or another race - that is unacceptable.

The one thing that I do agree on is background screening for EVERYONE who wants to adopt.

Make that bacground screening with a free health check up too!

There are instances where a rigorous background check will uncover some details that will prevent any couple from adopting a child into their home.


I don't care if the parents have three heads and 12 legs between them-if they can guarantee the child's safety and well being-have at it.

I promise that if we ever establish a real world PetTalkville there will be no child - or pet of course - who is unwanted or unloved. Things like gender, sexual preference and skin color will have no bearing on who can raise and love a child.

Does this include a Pomeranian who had an attraction to shoes and any items of clothing left on the floor?

That used to drive me nuts. I sat with a Pom that would go to town on anythig left on the floor, kinda funny at first, then downright disgusting later!

Let's see - yes, he'd be welcome there, but we do have a spay/neuter program as well, which might have helped. But keeping things off the floor, maybe we can find a volunteer for that job!
