/^t/There are many other problems connected with the 'gay issue' one of them being intolerance of society for a kid being raised by a gay couple. Children have to go to school whether they like it or not. They may like it when they have no problem with learning and they have friends. Since children are pretty intolerant, how would the child feel if everybody around knew that (s)he comes from a gay family. This child would feel alienated and would be ostracized for sure. Not many (if any at all) of his/her classmates would be brave enought to stand by him/her. It would surely have destructive influence on the child's mental state and who know maybe this influence would be present in his/her mind throughout the whole lifetime.
