Halt In Plans To Allow Gay Couple To Adopt
A council has halted plans to place a ten-year-old Catholic boy in the care of homosexual foster parents against the wishes of his mother.
The case was highlighted last month by The Mail on Sunday, the day before the boy was due to arrive at his new home, a hotel in Brighton run by a middle-aged male couple.
Brighton and Hove Council has now told the mother it is reviewing its decision after her lawyer argued it was obliged to try to place the boy with foster parents of the same faith.
The boy is a churchgoer and his mother, who is too ill to look after him, wanted him to be fostered by heterosexual parents in line with Catholic teaching on the family.
She said last night: ‘I am so happy and relieved. So is my son. Our religion is very important to us.’

Well, I would say that gay couples are not qualified in any manner or form to adopt or foster any child. For one thing, it has been demonstarted that children raised in such homes tend to a greater degree to experiment sexually with same gender people and more of them are gay when adults. They are also more likely to suffer molestation. This is child abuse.
It is by any reasonable measure wrong to allow a child to ever be placed up for adoption or foster parenting unless the couple fostering or adopting share the same religous faith as the child, whether the adoptive or foster parents are gay or straight.
Considering the long term emotional, spiritual and moral being of the child, if any reasonable chance exists that the birth parents will be able in the future to regain their ability to parent; or if any acceptable blood relative is available to foster parent or adopt or just have legal power over the child, then all efforts in that direction should be exhausted before the child is sent to live with non-blood relatives and in the end, since gay-marriage is an oxymoron, gay couples should be disqualified from raising children - period!
