Now that lgbt relationships are in the open, being formalized, there is more and more in various media outlets about lgbt divorce. The lgbt relationship is out in the open where it ought to be subject to the same inspection as otherss. The point being, that it is the human condition that leads to breakups and since lgbts are just like heterosexuals, their relationships and now marriages will fall part too.
So, you can put down that symbolic tired, rock of a deflective attack, Mr or Ms Glass House.
... or maybe the OP, you, and your ilk, simply target gays because you are bigoted?
Do a search I've started a topic about divorce. However it's the gays pushing their insidious agenda at the moment. So that's what I address from time to time.
Yes, gay couples adopting orphan children is "insidious."

What freak show universe are you from?
Didn't you know that foster and group homes with no stability, neglect, and a lack of love are a much better solution than same-sex parents? My boyfriend suffered years of sexual, emotional, and physical abuse at the hands of his foster families and group homes, but nothing would have been worse than living with two parents who wanted him because they do icky gross things in bed sometimes.

Exactly. The only thing gross about the issue is the homophobic views of our resident haters around here.
The study also didn't determine if the children of same sex couples were biological (surrogate/invetro), from a previous relationship (children who went through a divorce), or adopted.
Then there is this.
" There are a higher number of visible minority children for gay households
(28 % compared to 13 % for common law couples), and a higher number of
disabled children (13 % compared to 6 % for opposite sex married parents). This
may imply a high number of adopted children in gay households"
From the actual study, which you can see here The Douglas Allen study of Canadian children of gay/lesbian parents is worthless | Family Inequality (follow the link in the story)
Then there is the fact that all data for this study was pulled from the 2006 census. The same sex couples could have only been legally married for 1 year. They are reporting on children from 17 to 22 years old. So again, comparing children that were born inside of a legal marriage to children whose parents have been married for 1 year. We don't know about the relationships of the parents prior to when marriage was made legal in 2005.
Yet again, another study comparing apples to aardvarks.
Well, your comeback just proves the point I made. This is perhaps a little clearer exposition of what you could not understand.
Since lgbts are the same as a heterosexuals and since their relationships and or marriages are equal, and now more publicly visible and since all are equal as human beings. All will suffer the same divorce trends of the greater society. Now, explain to me how you get bigotry from that? One cannot be part of the whole, equal to the other elements of the whole, without being part of wholes trends.
No, you are too blinded by your misplaced hatred. I think that is your only purpose, or you are logic challenged.

They should be promoting 2 parent families period. Single parent families are the critical problem we are facing and that should be something people from all political backgrounds should address.

Can we have a discussion for once about such issues without the bigot term being thrown around? It's the equivalent of saying I'm a bigot because I don't support prostitution or wife swapping.
I believe the evidence is pretty clear on one front. Children raised in fatherless homes has a negative impact.

Incarceration Rates. "Young men who grow up in homes without fathers are twice as likely to end up in jail as those who come from traditional two-parent families...those boys whose fathers were absent from the household had double the odds of being incarcerated -- even when other factors such as race, income, parent education and urban residence were held constant." (Cynthia Harper of the University of Pennsylvania and Sara S. McLanahan of Princeton University cited in "Father Absence and Youth Incarceration." Journal of Research on Adolescence 14 (September 2004): 369-397.)
Suicide. 63% of youth suicides are from fatherless homes (Source: What Can the Federal Government Do To Decrease Crime and Revitalize Communities? - see link below)
Behavioral Disorders. 85% of all children that exhibit behavioral disorders come from fatherless homes (Source: What Can the Federal Government Do To Decrease Crime and Revitalize Communities? - see link below)
High School Dropouts. 71% of all high school dropouts come from fatherless homes (Source: What Can the Federal Government Do To Decrease Crime and Revitalize Communities? - see link below)

And I'm not letting divorced people off the hook. Divorce bears most of the responsible for these social problems.
So, children of single parents are worse off than children of two parent homes.
Do you have any studies that show that it is the lack of a parent with a penis that is the problem, or that the problem is being raised by a single parent?
