This part of the paper we talk about the history and the overall view society and we will look at whether or not the family wants to be open or closed about the adoption and whether they stay in contact with the family of the child. So if we first look at what society thinks about gays adopting we will see that a fair amount of people are actually against it. Even though we often hear that there are plenty of children up for adoption and that it would be great if someone would start adopting children. “Originally many heterosexual families felt that raising a child should only be in a straight family environment, but as we look at more recent data we start to see that people are getting more and more accepting of this idea”( Weiner). But to my surprise “many homosexual families actually do not want a child and that only about 19% of the LGBT population want to adopt, the number was originally about 10%”(Farri). The actual reason as to why they do not want to adopt children is unknown however; if I was to take a guess at why, I think it would have to deal with how society views them. If you look one YouTube you can find videos of gay couples walking around places in Russia, Israel and I think New York (working on this) and in the places out side of the US you see the couple get physically assaulted and attacked by people that are extremely against homosexuals. And in the New York video you see people stair and shout vulgar
