LGBT adoption is the adoption of children by lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) persons. This may be in the form of a joint adoption by a same-sex couple, adoption by one partner of a same-sex couple of the other’s biological child (step-child adoption) and adoption by a single LGBT person. Joint adoption by same-sex couples is legal in 25 countries.

Adoption is a harmful process that should be overhauled and reformed, with the intention being to reunite families, not permanently separate them, unless there are extreme circumstances where it is not possible. No one is entitled to buy another person's child.
@Hot-Potato 9mos9MO
Yes, sexual orientation should not be the deciding factor in whether or not someone should have the legal ability to adopt a child. The deciding factors should be whether or not someone is mentally and financially capable of loving and caring for a child. Especially in a world without abortion where there may possibly be more children being put up for adoption, it would be foolish to deny the ability to adopt a child to somebody simply based on which adults someone is attracted to.

Yes, in a world without abortion more children will be up for adoption. Therefore it would be foolish to deny the ability to adopt children to loving prospective parents. Two parents are always better than no parents.

It should be up to the adoption agency who receives priority. Adoption should be completely privatized.
@mattfromtnLibertarian4yrs4Y
No, private adoption agencies can set their own standards and should prioritize mother and father family structures
LGBT deserve to live in peace.
@Patriot-#1776Constitution10mos10MO
No, sexual perverts and "transgender" lunatics should never bee allowed to raise innocent children. Children deserve to be raised in an actual FAMILY composed of a married MAN AND WOMAN.

@ISIDEWITH – the answer for the Constitution Party does not align with the Constitution Party platform. They are an explicitly Christian political party that strongly opposes anything but a man-woman family structure and cringe at the idea of any child being part of any other structure. The AI got it wrong. The quiz will become more accurate if their answer is Changed to "No, and gay couples should not be able to adopt children."
Research proves that children raised in a traditional, stable, married mother-and-father household are far more likely to be successful. Non-straight couples should not be allowed to adopt children at all – and I say this not out of hatred toward them, as the left would accuse me of harbouring, but out of looking out for the rights and interests of children, whom I want to see grow up to be prosperous, virtuous, and productive members of American society.

Heteroseuxual relationships are better for children then gay or single parent scenarios however a single parent or homosexual couple makes a much better parent than foster care.
