Stability for all families!
Hooray for new data that makes our case that much more powerful!
In the July issue of Pediatrics magazine you will find this study that found that children from all kinds of families benefit when that family is legally recognized.
A quote from a press release I received:
Ellen C. Perrin, MD, Director of Developmental-Behavioral Pediatrics and The Center for Children with Special Needs at The Floating Hospital for Children Tufts-New England Medical Center and one of the authors of the report, stated, "The scientific data overwhelmingly demonstrate that there is no relationship between parents' sexual orientation and any measure of children's emotional, psychosocial, and behavioral adjustment. We conclude that civil marriage is beneficial to children, regardless of the gender of the parents, because it strengthens families and helps foster financial and legal security, psychosocial stability, and an augmented sense of societal acceptance and support."
Hell yeah.
