Children need both their mother and father especially girls during puberty who are more complex than boys. In most cases, children raised without a mother often tend to lack emotional security and advice only a mother can provide, and children especially girls who grow up without their fathers have no respect for authority and often engage in early sexual activity. It is also more than likely to occur that children who are raised in a homosexual environment tend to experience more hardships in life. It is also obvious that no matter how much love someone has for their partner’s children, there will always be a hole in the child’s heart, a hole that can only be filled with the other parent. Allowing same sex marriage is a burden because of the fact that it adds to the divorce rates in the system putting more children in danger of having a single parent.…

This article, written by Jon Witt, is about how children affect their parent's gender roles. When parents have sons, the father is more likely to be more "masculine" and the mother is more likely to be more "feminine". Parents respond to their sons like this because their sons will eventually grow up and have a more "rigid" gender role. Daughters do not have the same effect on their parents because they will not have the same "rigid" gender role.
