Two Moms, or a Mom and Dad?  No Difference for Children

The popular myth out there is that children of homosexual parents do just as well or no differently than children raised by a mother and father.  Yet, the research supporting this notion is sparse, and often so limited as to lack a random sample and pass scientific muster.

There is a massive new clinical study of 207,000 children that looked to see if larger random samples could replicate findings showing no difference between children with two moms, for example, and those with a mom and a dad.  It was taken from the U.S. National Health Interview Survey looking at twelve measures of emotional and developmental problems with controls for age, race, sex and parental income and education.  The study included 512 random children raised by same-sex couples.
