In response to your article on Friday, Oct. 29, "Adoption policy heading to court": How can these so-called child advocates be what they say they are when all you see is their agendas so blatantly displayed? How can you in good conscience say you are advocates for children when you want to change rules that are in place to help them, not confuse them?
These children have been removed from their homes and families because of instability. What makes you think that letting (to be politically incorrect) homosexual and unwed couples adopt foster children is going to give these kids stability? These children are in need of structure and stability; being adopted by those living "alternate" lifestyles does not give them that. I have been a foster parent. I've seen firsthand the plight of these children, and they do not need the confusion of having homosexual or unwed parents to deal with, let alone having to deal with being separated from their parents and siblings.I say "hurrah" to Scott Clark for his policy. Let's give these children what they deserve: conventional families and not alternate lives. Haven't they had enough already?
