They should be able to adopt children because if they are fit to be a parent they have should the same rights.
@B3WH2ZN3wks3W
Children need loving parents. Being part of the LGBT community doesn't make a prospective adoptive parent any more or less loving.
I can argue from a moral stance. There is no difference between a straight individual and an individual in the LGBTQ+ community. What does sexual orientation/gender identity have to do with being a sound hum
@B36YYHV1mo1MO
There is no definitive evidence or proof that adopted children have any worse outcomes under homosexual couples.
@B2FYGHS3mos3MO
Allowing LGBT individuals to adopt is crucial for the well-being of children and society. Studies show that children raised by same-sex parents thrive just as well as those with heterosexual parents, benefiting from stable, loving homes. Same-sex couples often adopt children who are harder to place, reducing the number of children in foster care. Denying LGBT adoption rights is discriminatory and contradicts principles of equality and human rights. Legalizing LGBT adoption promotes social acceptance and reduces stigma, ensuring all families are respected. While some cite religious beliefs to oppose LGBT adoption, the primary focus should be on the child’s best interests, ensuring they have access to a wider pool of loving parents.

LGBT families may affect their children's sexual orientation. There may be more LGBT people in the future. Without people to carry on the family line, there will be a serious population loss.

1. They do not follow the same religion as you
2. They are just as capable of taking care of a child as you
3. Some bad people doesn't make the whole community bad
4. They aren't 'grooming' the child
There is nothing wrong with two men, or two women keeping a child safe. Regardless of gender, there will be two loving and capable parents to take care of a child, and that is what matters most.
@9LZM4FT11mos11MO
We are all human beings that should be able to love who we want and raise a loving family if we want. If it weren’t for centuries of religious restraint and limitations, this would not and should not even be a question in 2024.
@9LX8JZW11mos11MO
LGBT Rights ARE Human Rights. Do orphaned children not deserve loving parents, regardless of gender?
These future parents are still people and regardless of their sexuality they should be allowed the same rights at other people
@9LSDZ8Y12mos12MO
that they should be able to because to me it doesnt really change andything since its still a family.
@9L2HYCT1yr1Y
I don't see any reason why people who are apart of the LGBTQ community wouldn't have the right to adopt a child of their own.
@9JYQ4R51yr1Y
All families, no matter who they are composed of should have the right to adopt a child. Raising a child in an LGBT household will not lower their quality of life nor the happiness they have growing up. The beautiful thing about adoption is being able to provide a child with a forever home that can provide them with love and support. Restricting who can and cannot adopt a child is unjust for both the families involved and the children in need of a loving home.
@9HDTFWK1yr1Y
The general idea is that a homosexual couple can't provide for a child in the same way a heterosexual couple can.
@9H4Y24R1yr1Y
They are the same people as heterosexual people and should not be restricted on adoption rights. As long as they've proven to be an adequate patient they should have the right.
@9H24J3P1yr1Y
They should be able to adopt children because if they are fit to be a parent they have should the same rights.
@9GTKJ4S1yr1Y
Everyone should have an equal opportunity to apply for and prove that they can be good parents to children looking to be adopted. The sexuality of the individuals should have absolutely no part in the decision of allow adults to foster a child. As long and the people looking to adopt will give the child a safe home, and will treat them with kindness and do everything for them that is in the child best interest there is no reason they should not be allowed to adopt that child.
@9GRM2VH1yr1Y
Children need to be loved and cared for. The system is struggling to support children that have been removed from their homes or do not have a home; why would we not support children being accepted into a home where they will be cared for? It would be a bonus to Canada if this alleviated some of the financial pressures as well.
why would we not support children being accepted into a home where they will be cared for? children need love and care
@9LY3J2311mos11MO
because some people believe that it is stupid the boys like boys or girls like girl. Thinks it is not normal
Why not? what could possibly go wrong if it is two men or two women adopting a child than a man and woman?
@9LQMWC9New Democratic12mos12MO
There is no reason whatsoever that a gay couple would be less suited to take care of a child than a heterosexual couple. In fact, many gay couples may be more equipped because they are far more likely to marry each other and to adopt children out of genuine desire instead of the social pressure that often accompanies straight couples. Any argument to the contrary is homophobia, plain and simple.
@9FR98BT2yrs2Y
being in a same sex relationship does not make a person any less capable of raising a child, severe drug addicts are able to have and raise children, so i simply do not see any issue with a same sex couple having a child.
@9FLHB7G2yrs2Y
people like who they like. a man can like a man and they can adopt because it does not matter if you are gay because gay people have rights to.
@9FJSRV92yrs2Y
There is no evidence to say that children of LGBT families are impacted negatively at all by the orientation of their parents.
@9LRR8KT 12mos12MO
How is no even an option here, you gotta be committed to homophobia to say no to that question. Like kids are actively being put in abusive and dangerous households and we’re gonna say no to a loving caring family because they both are… gay?
@9FLZGNB2yrs2Y
Everyone has the right to be a father or mother no matter their sexuality or gender. Everyone in this world deserves a chance to experience that.
@9FRVPDR2yrs2Y
LGBT couples are often more mentally stable than straight couples, so a child will be in a safer and more accepting home than a child of a straight couple.
@B43QR8D2wks2W
Adults should be able to marry other consenting adults if they choose. If you disagree with it, it's truly none of your business.
@9G7JLYDConservative1yr1Y
everyone should be allowed the same opportunities for adoption regardless of gender or sexual orientation. LGBT couples are no different than man-woman couples and can provide just as much love and support.
@9GK4ZTH1yr1Y
A traditional mother and father family has been broken countless times. Especially with single parents
@B4F5J94 2 days2D
LGBT couples are just the same as anyone else, therefore I beleive that ALL people including the LGBT cmmunity should be allowed to adopt a child. But must NOT attempt to influence them into the community but follow their own paths in life. Taking away rights for the LGBT community to adopt children takes away opportunities to make new families and new homes for children in need of a better place.
