What are your thoughts on gay couples as parents?

I think as long as they provide a loving, stable home for their child that’s all that matters. But what are your thoughts? Do you think that children should be brought up by a mom and dad or are two moms and dads just as good at being parents? In some states gay couples could be turned away from adopting children because of religious objections. What do you think about that?

My wife and I adopted a girl from local authority care and are in the process of adopting another. I am an apprentice parent learning on the job, but my wife who works as a paediatric nurse, is a true professional. We're not perfect, but we like to think we do more good than harm. We're certainly doing a better job than the girls' birth parents.
