Just yesterday my psychology teacher told us that in russia they would have these foster homes, and there would be so many babies and very few caretakers that they would basically just pick the babies up to change them and feed them. Other than that, they would lay in the cribs crying all day! There just werent enough people to comfort and cuddle with them! I find that very sad and the children grew up with psychological damage! They were not warm and friendly, they didnt know what love was, and just weren't people persons. This was a study conducted in Russia and because of ethical situations it was not done in the united states! I dont know how long ago this was done, but i was completely astonished because i felt bad for these children!
Needless to say, i dont think it matters if its a gay/lesbian couple that adopts a child, just knowing that they will be loved uncondiotionally is what matters! For the most part, i dont think they are better off in the foster homes knowing that there is a couple wanting to provide and safe and loving environment for a child.
