what most of the people here tend to forget, though, is that many gay couples with children have groups they go to with other gay families, and many children with gay parents have friends who have gay parents. they're raised in a household that is understanding, as well as a support group of people who are in the same boat (yeah, i know people with gay parents, they do go to groups with their parents and all that stuff). i think that people need to be more understanding and get over themselves enough to let the possibility of other people being happy not get their panties in a twist. my biggest pet peeve are people who believe they have the right to decide who gets to be happy or not.
