Informative report on children of same-sex couples, based on recent studies from Clark University and the University of Massachusetts. Their findings suggest that children from homosexual parents are not all that different, but tend to be less conventional and more flexible about gender roles. Good overview about an under-reported topic.

In a study of the families of homosexuals, it is found that the kids turn out completely healthy. Unsurprisingly the children of gay and lesbian parents tend to favor the values of the gay and lesbian communities. Children growing up with homosexual parents have an eye towards equality and are not as affected by the gender roles of society.

Lisa Belkin presents her point of view concerning children raised by same sex couples. She offers data that seem to imply being educated by a lesbian or gay couple is just "good for the kids", with the children becoming more liberal, progressive, and nonconformist.

This is one of the most insightful articles I've read on gay marriage, including my research on the issue. It brings an important aspect into the popular debate centered on the topic of gay rights by introducing the effects this debate has on people. Many do not include children in the discussion and the benefits posed are indeed notable.
