Top Pediatrics Group Endorses Gay Marriage, Claims It Will Help Kids’ Health

Mar. 22, 2013 2:08pm Billy Hallowell

CHICAGO (TheBlaze/AP) — The nation’s most influential pediatrician’s group says gays should be allowed to marry to help ensure the health and well-being of their children.

The American Academy of Pediatrics’ new policy, published online Thursday, cites research showing that the parents’ sexual orientation has no effect on a child’s development. Kids fare just as well in gay or straight families when they are nurturing and financially and emotionally stable, the academy says.

The academy believes that a two-parent marriage is best equipped to provide that kind of environment. Their policy says that if a child has two gay parents who choose to marry, “it is in the best interests of their children that legal and social institutions allow and support them to do so.”

The American Academy of Pediatrics Endorses Gay Marriage, Says It Will Help Kids Health

In this Feb. 27, 2013 file photo, Dr. Paul Melchert, left, gets interrupted by son, Emmett, as he attempts to address the media while his partner James Zimerman, right, holds twin, Gabriel, during a news conference in St. Paul, Minn., where lawmakers introduced a bill to legalize gay marriage in Minnesota. On Thursday, March 21, 2013, the American Academy of Pediatrics, the most influential U.S. pediatrician’s group, endorsed gay marriage, saying a stable relationship between parents regardless of sexual orientation contributes to a child’s health and well-being. Credit: AP

The policy cites reports indicating that almost 2 million U.S. children are being raised by gay parents, many of them in states that don’t allow gays to marry.

The academy announced its position Thursday. It read, in part:

The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) supports civil marriage for same-gender couples – as well as full adoption and foster care rights for all parents, regardless of sexual orientation – as the best way to guarantee benefits and security for their children. [...]

In a previous policy statement published in 2002 and reaffirmed in 2010, the AAP supported second-parent adoption by partners of the same sex as a way to protect children’s right to maintain relationships with both parents, eligibility for health benefits and financial security. The 2013 policy statement and accompanying technical report adds recommendations in support of civil marriage for same-gender couples; adoption by single parents, co-parents or second parents regardless of sexual orientation; and foster care placement regardless of sexual orientation.

Officials with the group said they wanted to make the academy’s views known before two gay marriage cases are considered by the U.S. Supreme Court next week.

“We wanted that policy statement available for the justices to review,” said Dr. Thomas McInerney, the academy’s president and a pediatrician in Rochester, N.Y.

The pediatricians’ gay marriage stance is not surprising. They previously joined other national groups including the American Medical Association in supporting one of the Supreme Court cases, which contends the Defense of Marriage Act is unconstitutional. The academy also previously supported adoption by gay parents.

The academy’s statement notes that several other national health groups have supported gay marriage. Those are the American Academy of Family Physicians, the American Psychiatric Association, the American Psychological Association and the American College of Nursing.

Dr. Ben Siegel, a Boston pediatrician and chairman of the committee that developed the new policy, said its focus is on “nurturing children. We want what’s best for children.”

The academy has a history of taking a stand on politically touchy issues. It has discouraged families with children from having guns in their homes and urged pediatricians to give teens advance prescriptions for emergency birth control.

Policy positions typically start in the academy’s committees and are based on a review of scientific literature. These recommendations then go to the academy’s board of directors, and if approved, sent on to a three-member executive committee for a final vote. The group’s 60,000 members do not vote on policy.

The gay marriage policy came from the academy’s committee on psychosocial aspects of child and family health, and an academy spokeswoman said it was adopted with no objections.

This system needs to crash. It is turning into a monster, with sick morality and death as its symbol. Time to crash the Fed and the rest of the system and let the results sort itself out before it destroys everyone.

  Actually, if you look at the latest polls, most of Americans favor same-sex marriage. And by a widening margin. But it is the role of the government to support and provide equality for all, not the rule of the majority.

The well-conducted research on this issue is not promising for same sex couples with children: http://howdyhepworths.blogspot.com/2012/10/dear-anonymous-some-facts-about-effect.html At best, kids do about as well in homes with single parents as with ss parents. But even then, the groups studied should have produced better results as they tended to be higher income, white, highly educated, etc.

I remember hearing a story about how guys would get themselves thrown in jail so that they could engage in Gay sex but act like it was forced on them. Their self hate was so strong that they later founded an enclave in San Francisco and moved their headquarters into what they named the Tenderloin District of the Castro. When kids were enamored by the Hippie Movement in the 1960′s, pedophiles roamed Haight/Ashbury like chicken hunters with toothless, dead-end hags; wearing spiked collars.

  Harry,
  
  You are right — Sadly some kids will never hear anything about how it all works from parents.
  
  Newflash: my 12 year old does not need to know about how to use a condom. Ya know why?
  Because he has not been programmed by our culture.
  
  My children do not accept the paradigm that they cannot have self-control.
  
  …. and that having sex as a teen is normal
  
  …that preventing pregnancy and abortion are merciful and good choices.
  
  …Because I have made sure he knows chastity and self-control are a choice that a man of God can make.
  
  ….I am making sure he knows what birth control does to a woman’s body.
  
  ….I told him how faulty many condoms are.
  ….I told him when they work well, they stop a process that God has created.
  
  We have to stop letting this sick culture raise our kids.

Pediatricians need to **** out.

One day, a friend of mine brought her oldest son (12 years old) to his pediatrician for a checkup. The doctor said she had to see him alone after his exam. His mother was suspicious and correctly suspected that this meeting was to explain to him about how to be safe and sexually active.

I mean, he was 12 years old! Isn’t it presumed he is having, or about to have sex? (sarcasm now turned off)

She was within her rights to deny the pediatrician this private meeting. She said no.

Watch out. Especially if your children are still in government schools. You children do not need to be told what morality to accept as normal, to be shown how use condoms, or any other advice.

  Harrypotter,
  
  You must not have kids. Why should anyone privately speak with your 12 year old child about sex and birth control?
  
  It is not the job of medical professionals to counsel children on anything, much less sex, and especially not unless the parent is in the room.

  Actually there is quite a bit of evidence pointing to sexual orientation being an inborn trait. But if you really want to know, here’s a way to prove it to yourself. Choose to be gay for a day. For 24 hours be attracted to your own gender. I’m not saying have sex, but only be attracted to your own gender. If you can’t do this, then what makes you think anyone else can? Clearly you cannot choose your sexual orientation.
  
  Trad:
  
  I agree that this talk should come from the parents, but some parents either don’t know all the details, or feel too awkward talking to their children about sex. This is a way for youth to get the answers they need, facts, knowing that it is true without an awkward talk with their parents. I think this would be very beneficial.

The Gays view themselves as the victims in their self-created angst and misery when in fact it’s the innocent children who suffer the most. The children’s pain cannot be mitigated by the perversion of Gay marriage, only worsened exponentially to each and every passing day. At first an innocent child may not understand that a Gay marriage is an abomination but that revelation is only pending the passage of time. For example a playmate may one day ask “Who are your parents”? “My parents are daddy, daddy or mommy, mommy”? Huh?

  While agree with your premise, I wonder how many children raised by homosexual parents will be raised in religion? Specifically Christianity.
  
  If they are not, they will likely not see the behavior of their ‘parents’ as an abomination.
  
  Not that heterosexual parents are perfect, but they are at least striving for an ideal. And it is in the striving that respect is earned.
  
  People tend to avoid things that make them uncomfortable…they will seek out a place where their reflection does not resemble a carnival house of mirrors.

  The liberals are NOT GOING TO LIKE THIS ONE LITTLE BIT. I believe the people in positions of authority that endorse homosexuality as strictly a biological matter need to be HORSEWHIPPED IN PUBLIC . Unless you have the i.q. of a houseplant you do HAVE A CHOICE IN WHAT YOU DO SEXUALLY!!!!!! GOD ONLY KNOWS what those children will hear and see!!!!!!!!!! THERE IS A MUCH HIGHER INCIDENCE OF MOLESTATION AND CHILD RAPE WITH HOMOSEXUAL MALES IN THE HOUSE!!!!!

  Rocketsmom, pedophiles have nothing in common with homosexuals. I presume you are straight so I will ask this simple question: Do you find children of the opposite gender from you sexually attractive? As I am quite confident the answer is “no” then I’m going to have to ask if it’s okay that I just go ahead and assume you’re a pedophile anyway and shouldn’t be trusted around children of the opposite sex.
  
  As for your “choice” comment. When did you first decide to be straight? Was it a difficult decision for you? Or did you perhaps not think about it and start feeling attracted to members of the opposite sex in your early teenage/pre-teen years? I mean that’s how it was for me, girls went from having cooties to being awesome at some point. I didn’t get to be about 13 and say ‘Hey she’s pretty, I guess I’ll be straight’.

  I would assume that the above two articles were for me and you were out to ‘prove’ something?
  
  Assuming that pedophiles are born that way, which we’re still not sure about, then guess what? That’s not something they ‘have in common’ with just homosexuals. It’s something they have in common with heterosexuals as well.
  
  The scope of my ‘nothing in common’ with comment pertained exclusively to shattering the ongoing myth that gays or gay men in particular are likely to be pedophiles. It’s not true and I showed how it’s not true using the example of a straight person not being sexually attracted to children of the opposite gender.

  What exactly does that show? A straight person being a normal person? If a man molests male children, he is a gay pedophile. So apparently he is born both gay and a pedophile. Pretty soon progressives will make pedophilia normal I am sure.

  The “correlation” is they are both mental illnesses and there is now a push to claim pedophilia is just as normal as homosexuality. The real science does NOT back up the “born that way” claim whether you like it or not. It’s so amazing that a homosexual scientist was allowed to push this nonsense and everyone just went along with the flow.

There goes the left again, changing the meanings of words – who in their right mind doesn’t associate ‘parents’ with ‘mom & dad”?

Now ‘parents’ means two (or more) adults.

As a pediatrician, I am disgusted at the AAP hierarchy. The intellectual elite, using as an excuse the welfare created pathetic baby mama’s and baby daddy’s welfare, think the AAP can raise your baby better than you. The AAP hierarchy are trying to “medical home” everyone and take over child raising. Hitler said, “Give me a child before he is seven and he will be mine for life.” Think about that when someone talks about Head Start programs and Obama’s desire for Universal pre-school.

These groups that support Gay marriage believe all they have to do is to endorse this abomination against God and nature and everything is okay. Marriage is between a man and a woman. Any other combination is a sick twist. Why not let the states decide the issue? Oops! I know why.

@Soy… most states now do allow same sex couples… and single adults… to adopt.

doesn’t mean it’s the best.
any who’ve read what i post know i am anything but opposed to homosexuality…
i’m not even opposed to same sex parents or single parents…
but that’s because i think having one loving parent or two same sex parents beats an abusive home or having no loving parents… and it assumes said adoptive parents are loving.

studies have repeatedly shown that not just a mom and not just a dad are necessary for kids to grow up with the healthiest psychological make up… the most likely to get a good education, have contructive social interactions and good peer groups, and to get and keep a good job.

clearly those are not values the current government is pushing, when they’re happy handing out to 47% to maintain a voting base.

secular progressivism, feminism, and the loss of ‘we’ in public education have eroded the nuclear family until it is no longer the norm… it’s still the best chance kids have, but we’ve as a nation stopped honestly worrying about the kids except when it’s convenient to advance an agenda or beat down an opponent.

kids… the alinsky tool of the 22nd century.

  It’s not a conservative viewpoint, but it is certainly the libertarian view. Opposing it is the authoritarian viewpoint. That’s why people who like to think of themselves as conservative libertarians sometimes try to justify their opposition by concocting tortured arguments to the effect that their religious liberty is somehow violated by the state failing to enforce the rules of their religion upon people who don’t share their beliefs.

  I don’t buy this at all. There is a reason besides sex that it is male and female to raise children so you can get a healthy balance of male influence and female influence for children. I just see this as more PC crap. These are hte same people I bet that think those who think they are a man in a woman’s body or vice versa are perfectly fine mentally while someone who thinks he has multiple voices in his head is not. These people are quacks.

  I dunno, DLV… i’ve seen people who are good dog owners and bad dog owners and there never seems to be any underlying theme other than good dog owners really love dogs…
  
  L-O-V-E…. love dogs.
  
  Children that are loved fare better than children who are not loved.

  Yes, and lets not forget the social pariahs that they (kids of gay couples) will be seen as.
  Instinctively, chilldren of mothers/’fathers, ie, male female, KNOW an aberration when they see it.
  
  The Pediatric institute can dance all around this, but even nature raises a voice of protest against it, as well as Common Sense—————

  The children are merely accessories for homosexuals’ delusions about themselves.
  Children raised by the parents who conceived them are gifted with a paternal and maternal lineage. Homosexuals can never provide this kind of gift to the children they can only acquire through a paid for third party.
  
  Let me add….the APA (American Psychiatric Assoc) is mentioned in this article. The findings of the APA on children in homosexual housesholds has come into serious questioning.
  
  The Social Science Research journal questions the APA’s assertions.
  
  “Loren Marks, of Louisiana State University, authored “Same-Sex Parenting and Children’s Outcomes: A Closer Examination of the American Psychological Association’s Brief on Lesbian and Gay Parenting,” which uses objective scientific methods to examine the APA assertion about the outcomes of homosexual parenting. Marks’ research calls into question the validity of the research methods and analysis of the 59 published studies cited by the APA.”
  
  “Marks concluded that the APA assertions about homosexual parenting were not empirically warranted — i.e., the data presented doesn’t validate their hypothesis.”.

  Ah but JOHN VINCENT..this is where Gay Inc’s school age kid agenda comes in. The “Bullying” programme for example is merely a stealth propaganda campaign for homosexual acceptance indoctrination to school children. Not coincidentally…groups like GLSEN (started by Obama’s Czar of Safe Schools Kevin Jennings) are specifically targeted to school children. Recently GLSEN was advocating teaching school age children extreme sex acts like f#sting which is a practice common in the homosexual community.
  California schools must provide lessons teaching kids about the contributions of homosexuals. Why this is so is beyond me other than to break down the instinctive barriers we have to aberrant behaviour.
  In a sane world, this is clearly propaganda and indoctrination but it’s all presented as being essential and benevolent.
  Additionally…teach kids that “gay is ok” early..and you get no resistance from them as a society later in life..and we’re seeing the fruits of that campaign right now.
  
  This is how Gay Inc solves that problem JOHN VINCENT..but warping impresionable children’s minds at an early age.

  allensmith being a physician above offered a voice of reason in this assault, and u are correct it is that.
  
  Your observation about ‘paternal and maternal lineage’ was correct, important, strong, and undeniable. Be that as it may, most naysayers will deny this, and state your analysis as irrelevant, but calm voices of strong protest should not be avoided. You never know how much good one can do, even here in these posts.
  
  Nice work-

Not surprised. Ideology always trumps sanity with psychologists. Apparently, they have decided to ignore research casting doubts upon same-sex parenting:

Nice try, you sick bass turds – “Oh, but we must do it, erah, FOR THE CHILDREN.”

You mthr folksters are killing children at the rate of about 1 million a year, in the meat grinders you call ‘abortion clinics’. Take the log out of your own eye first, before you go try fixing a problem you think someone else has.

  Funny they do not mention whats really bad for Kids Health that they support. Abortion Clinics and Single Parents in the hood are killing millions. Of course a two parent family is best. Did not know they have to be married to get the desired effect. The group better talk to the Heterosexuals parents who live together with Children and not married – they are damaging their Children’s Health.
  
  Just another group of peddlers for the gay lifestyle forced on everyone else but FOR THE CHILDREN. Its always about the Children for the Left, but they are poster child’s for The War On Children at Planned Parenthood.
  
  Keep it Classy Liberals. Bunch of Hypocrites.

  Stop using words that don’t make sense. You’re not “pro-life;” you’re “pro-unborn”. You don’t give a sheet about anyone after they’re born!

Of course having two loving parents will help kids health! This study just shows what all rational Americans already knew.

  Where is your evidence supporting your statement, HP?
  
  Or are you just going to parrot the unsubstantiated comments made in the article itself?

  A kid is a baby billy goat. Human beings have children.
  
  Maybe since gays cannot have children they call them kids.
