http://wtop.com/?nid=25&sid=988786 I really feel bad for the kid in this case, and of course this will be controversial (and not everything listed here is specifically bad), but let's look at the situation of the kid involved: - artificially insemination led to conception - parents are lesbians - parents are divorced - custody battle - split last name (Miller-Jenkins) Yikes. |

I feel bad for the kid - but only for the custody battle piece. |

There are worse last names a kid could have (like mine). I'm sure in the end the kid will have suffered as much as a hetero kid does. |

I'm glad to see this ruling. It is a sad case. The couple's relationship started to fall apart after a miscarriage of their second child. |

I dont think so. Like it or not, the reality is that there are tons of people out there who are less tolerant than me (and that says alot! :P). I dont think there's really a question that a child with two gay parents will have to deal with a bunch more drama (or whatever) than a kid with hetero parents. |
