In Our World - new adoption rules
This is too much for me.
I thought everyone was in agreement that a balanced family environment was best for children.
To condone or mandate possible unbalanced households goes directly against that idea.
Wouldn't you agree?...

This is the beginning of a post by Karen Kriske at the CatholicNewsAgency.com:
"The largest Catholic adoption agency in England and Wales has decided to implement an adoption policy that does not rule out same-sex couples in the face of new laws that forbid such screening. The change in its adoption policy was made with the full support of the bishops who oversee the agency.
The decision, made by the Catholic Children’s Society of Arundel and Brighton, Portsmouth and Southwark (A&BSP) means the society will not turn away any homosexual couples who present themselves as potential adopters.
Terry Connor, chief executive of the society, explained to The Universe that any changes would not start until January and were a direct result of the recent Sexual Orientation Regulations which enforced “rights” for same sex couples who wish to adopt."
