[QUOTE=“Sidney, post: 1132560, member: 183”]Pity for you that the author is widely accepted to be a complete loonball, and his studies have been disowned by even the journal that published it.
Susan White would be a better source.[/QUOTE]
Critics don’t apply same standards to research advocating no affect on kids - methods, sample sizes.
ad hominem attack on the man and not the research.
Any attack on research in this area can be applied to all such research. So people saying research shows no affect are lying. Nobody can say definitively as not enough data. but there is research saying it has an impact and equally LGBT funded research saying no impact
[I]The American College of Pediatricians et al., in their April 3, 2015, amicus brief in Obergefell v. Hodges, cite just-released work in which “Sullins found that, while outcomes for children with opposite-sex parents improved if their parents were married, outcomes for children with same-sex parents were notably worse if their parents were married rather than unmarried.”[10][/URL] In this latest study,[URL=‘http://www.heritage.org/research/reports/2015/04/the-research-on-same-sex-parenting-no-differences-no-more#_ftn11’][11] using data from the congressionally mandated National Longitudinal Survey of Adolescent to Adult Health (the primary data source for the three best studies used to support the “no differences” theory), Dr. Sullins finds that children of reported married same-sex parents are more likely than those of unmarried same-sex parents, unmarried opposite-sex parents, or married opposite-sex parents to experience depressive symptoms, unhappiness, daily fear or crying, and anxiety.
Furthermore, about a third of children raised by same-sex married parents report having been sexually abused by a parent or caregiver prior to 6th grade, a rate more than five times as high as children with any other category of parents, and among those who had ever had sex, about two-thirds of those raised by same-sex married parents report having been forced to do so against their will, a rate three to seven times as high as among those raised by any other category of parents. The magnitude of these differences is so great that, despite a small sample size, they are statistically significant, and further research is needed to determine their cause[/I].
