International Adoption Several years ago in a small town in Cambodia, a young woman by the name of Beatriz falls to her knees as the tears begin to pour down onto the dirt-covered floor of her home. She is only a girl and knows that she will not be able to take care of another human being especially in this unsafe town.

The Effects of Gay Adoption on a Child Children need loving homes and it is unfair that people are preventing them from receiving that. Homosexuals have barely been accepted and now they are being denied the opportunity to be parents.

People are fine with putting kids in homes that are unsafe but are against putting them in a home with two loving…
