Mom Logic: 'Gay or Nay' on Same Sex Adoption?

FROM MOM LOGIC:

Monday, December 8, 2008

Arkansas' same sex adoption ban will take effect in a matter of days. This comes just weeks after Florida lifts their ban. How do you feel about same sex adoption?

Arkansas' law means all gay couples will not be allowed to adopt or foster as of January 1. While heterosexual unmarried couples are also forbidden, some say the law is only to ensure that homosexuals aren't given the right. Susan Hoffpauir, President of the Arkansas chapter of the National Association of Social Workers agrees that adding such restrictions will only cut down on the amount of quality homes available.

While it began to seem like some were warming up to the idea of same sex parenting -- a judge in Florida last month struck down an old law prohibiting same sex couples to adopt -- Utah and North Dakota also disqualify gay couples from being foster parents or adopting.
