[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You don't need to randomly assign babies. All you have to do is to randomly select a large sample of children raised by same sex parents and by heterosexual parents. Account for things like household income and parents' education. [/quote] This has been done, actually. Children of gay parents fare slightly better. [/quote] There is no experimental research on this question. There are only observational studies. When you read media reports that "gay kids fare better" beware the fine print. The vast majority of these studies use snowball/convenience sampling. They aren't worth the paper they are written on and many of the random sample studies show that gay kids do not do better. Either way it's all junk because they are not experimental studies. They are correlation, not causation.[/quote]
