You have written precisely what I was thinking. I completely agree. And to those objecting, an abusive environment isn't ok whether it's created by gay or heterosexual parents, but a loving environment fostered by a mother and a father will beat a loving environment built by a gay couple any day, hands down. Why? Because it is well-rounded and complete. Whereas if a child were raised by just one gender, they will only learn how to relate to and interact with that gender and not the other, and in the earliest years of their lives, when their parents have the biggest and most powerful and influence, that has profound effects that can manifest themselves in unpredictable and not so positive ways in later life. This is what this poster is trying to say. I used to think that there was no problem with a gay couple becoming parents, but now I think differently, because the child's needs really should come first. It's their brain that's being formed and moulded from the get-go, and not giving them a chance to interact with BOTH genders in their most formative years is really unfair to the kid and, in its own way, is even abuse (even if unintended).
