Arkansas Gets Rid of Law

Arkansas just got rid of a law that used to prevent gay couples from fostering children. The law was nullified due to the fact that psychological problems or dangers to health, welfare, and safety of the child simply do not exist. The policy was challenged by none other than the ACLU in 1999. This milestone for gay people shows that they two can take care of raise kids as a couple.

OPINION

I do not have a problem at all. Now, I know somebody is out there who is thinking parents should be preserved as a thing between a man and a woman. But with so many divorces, that argument is weakened because often the bond becomes weak after time and the people become weak and they leave each other. Thinking about this, you have to think about what's best for the child. If you think about the fact that this gay or lesbian couple has a passionate love for each other, than you have to expect that love to transfer to the raising of a child. With that, I see no reason to not allow gay or lesbian couples to raise children.
