Christian couple told they can't adopt due to their views on homosexuality.
RE: Christian couple told they can't adopt due to their views on homosexuality.
And through the initial interviews and visitation they couldn't just say.. well this probably isn't right for you? They did it 15 other times if I remember correctly. Seems like they fufilled their responsibilities before
Quote:Responsibilities

Foster Parents:

provide daily care and nurturing of children in foster care;
advocate for children in their schools and communities.
inform the children's caseworkers about adjustments to the home, school, and community, as well as any problems that may arise, including any serious illnesses, accidents, or serious occurrences involving the foster children or their own families.
make efforts as team members with children's caseworkers towards reunifying children with their birth families.
provide a positive role model to birth families, and
help children learn life skills.


Adoptive Parents:

provide permanent homes and a lifelong commitment to children into adulthood.
provide for the short-term and long-term needs of children.
provide for children's emotional, mental, physical, social, educational, and cultural needs, according to each child's developmental age and growth.
may become certified as a foster family and accept children who are not legally free for adoption, but whose permanency plan is adoption.
The article I thought was for adoption or a permanenncy of foster care.. which is adoption in everything but legality. And no one has still substantiated they were not positive role models, morally deficient or unable to support every aspect of the child in question. If the child is homosexual, it's a mute point and you just deprived a child of a healthier life. If he turns out to have sexual orientation issues or is homosexual, you still can't provide evidence that the families views would be forced upon the child in that one particular regard, much less that a lack in that one area outweighs the other areas the child is supported in.
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
