And the left wonders why we are revolting so hard against their platform.
Marriage is between ONE man and ONE woman. It has been that way since the Garden of Eden. It is the union that is blessed by God. And natural.
There are plenty of statistics flying around to support both sides. But my personal opinion is that kids do better in traditional marriages than same-sex. The impact may not affect smaller kids as much but once you get in upper grades, well...there's no mercy. If you can be picked on for having a fat mama, or wearing glasses, or just because you're smart, can you imagine what terror a child could go through because mommy and mama decided daddy wasn't important? And oh, don't even start the racism talk. Kids are kids. They are stuck. I just have to wonder why adults would put their children through it.
But in good old California they just don't do anything normal. Nope. California deteriorating with its ludicrous leaders and their insane ideas They are not just financially bankrupt. They are morally bankrupt. And this is just one more example....
California bill would allow a child to have more than two parents
Beaver had June and Ward. Ricky had Ozzie and Harriet.
Mom and Dad, same-sex couples or blended families, California law is clear: No more than two legal parents per child.
When adults fight over parenthood, a judge must decide which two have that right and responsibility – but that could end soon.
State Sen. Mark Leno is pushing legislation to allow a child to have multiple parents.
"The bill brings California into the 21st century, recognizing that there are more than Ozzie and Harriet families today," the San Francisco Democrat said.
Surrogate births, same-sex parenthood and assisted reproduction are changing society by creating new possibilities for nontraditional households and relationships.
Benjamin Lopez, legislative analyst for the Traditional Values Coalition, blasted Leno's bill as a new attempt to "revamp, redefine and muddy the waters" of family structure by a leader in the drive to legalize gay marriage.
"It comes as no surprise that he would try to say that a child has more than two parents – that's absurd," said Lopez, whose group calls itself a leading voice for Bible-based values.
Under Leno's bill, if three or more people who acted as parents could not agree on custody, visitation and child support, a judge could split those things up among them.
SB 1476 is not meant to expand the definition of who can qualify as a parent, only to eliminate the limit of two per child.
Under current law, a parent can be a man who signs a voluntary declaration of paternity, for example. It also can be a man who was married and living with a child's mother, or who took a baby into his home and represented the infant as his own. Leno's bill, which has passed the Senate and is now in the Assembly, would apply equally to men or women, and to straight or gay couples.
Examples of three-parent relationships that could be affected by SB 1476 include:
• A family in which a man began dating a woman while she was pregnant, then raised that child with her for seven years. The youth also had a parental relationship with the biological father.
• A same-sex couple who asked a close male friend to help them conceive, then decided that all three would raise the child.
• A divorce in which a woman and her second husband were the legal parents of a child, but the biological father maintained close ties as well.
