What is going on? How dim are social services? Just reading in the Express (ok lefty's I don't think they made this one up) about a Gay couple being allowed to foster teenage boys which they subsequentlt abused, what planet are the fostering services people on? They'll refuse a normal couple on the flimsiest of reasons, predatory gay couple? No problem!

I dont agree at all Dolly 1308, I think we have all made our disgust at this couples behaviour perfectly clear and have merely added our disappointment regarding the biased slant of the question.

Doesnt surprise me at all. If you tick a box for something different then a separate set of rules apply to you.


An for the record, no I dont believe in gay fostering. Put the children first not the adults. Can yo uimagine what these (probably already distruat) kids go through when their peers find out.

Oh, please.

youngmafbog....eh?

Thank you BOO, purpose & Drusilla.


I am glad I finally got my point across..LOL.

First rate piece of circular logic, youngmafbog!


"We should discriminate against some people because some people discriminate against them."


Bravo!

i know of no evidence to support your assertion that gay couples are less well vetted than straight couples when applying to help children through offering to foster (and neither do you). In fact i would imagine due to the feelings of many in society that gay people shouldn't be allowed to foster or adopt they would probably come under more scrutiny than a straight couple
(as an aside why oh why do some people still insist on connecting �gay� with paedophilia!! Drives me absolutely mad).

What these people have done is terrible � but horrible people exits all over the world and they do not conform to one type (gay, straight, white, black etc) e.g. you cannot recognise them when you see them. You blame the social services � but people can pass all the relevant test and have never done anything wrong in their entire lives suddenly to start committing crime when given the opportunity, it would be impossible to stop this using any system we can imagine as unfortunately evil people exist and no one can eradicate evil.

So may I suggest that instead of blaming social services for being dim, or blaming the liberal elite for their PC acceptance of gays, or blaming anyone else that disagrees maybe, just maybe, you should just blame those individuals for their crimes.
I wonder Fred West was never described (to my recollection) as a hetrosexual psychopath?
I'm sure when they applied to be foster parents they didnt put on the application two gay child abusing monsters. There are many straight foster parents that have done this too. there are many monsters out there that would do this to children regardless of their sexuality.

I do blame them for their crimes undercovers, that will usually get me labelled as homophobic though. Just look at this question. Most of the responses feel the need to go into the whole "Gay bashing" debate. Everyone seems afraid to think that possibly, just possibly:


2 gay men, living together + 14 year old boy = alarm bells.


Even if they have no history of predatory behaviour, it's putting huge temptation in their path.


Daring to even think that, seems to be regarded as a heinous crime. To me, it's logical to try and anticipate potential abuses.

TEMPTATION...............???


Get a grip!


WHAT is wrong with you...?

I'm sorry? Temptation?


Do they think that putting a girl with a straight couple is tempting for the man? Or that putting a boy with a straight couple is tempting for the woman?????


I'm sorry Loosehead, but you keep stressing that your post isn't "gay bashing" yet your subsequent posts keep going back to that point.

Question Author
Is that your response when you cannot respond to a legitimate point? What are you saying? Are they somehow immune from temptation then? This is a feature I had not previously encountered!
Oh my god I cannot believe your last statement loosehead. I think you're digging yourself a very big hole here. I see no problem with two gays looking after a 14 year old boy. That in a way you're saying all gay couples see 14yr olds in a sexual way. What about children who have gay fathers? is that wrong too? Maybe we are all too suspicious nowadays. If you're out walking with you toddler and a strange lady goes up to her and and says oh arent you cute you think nothing of it whereas if a bloke does it some people think he must be a peodo. the world today is ridiculous.
Obviously no hetro sexual couple should be allowed to adopt a girl then - I mean - a man approaching his mid life with a teenager in the house - the temptation. How can anyone cope!

Loosehead... why would a gay man be any more tempted to abuse a 14 year old boy than a straight man would be to abuse a 14 year old girl...?


Now answer the Question.

Just had a thought. All boys should be fostered or adopted by lesbian parents, all girls by gay men. End of any sexual problem! (obviously hetro sexual couples should not be allowed to adopt/foster as previous post)
Question Author

So some of you refuse to draw any distinction between a standard heterosexual couple fostering kids and two gay men fostering kids. Is that where we are at?


Just food for thought, after the age for gay sex was lowered to 16, ie to be in line with heterosexuals a couple of years ago, anyone care to guess what Peter Tatchel said immediately afterwards? Yep, you guessed it, "Lowering the age to 16 is progress but really 14 would be more appropriate" well there's a thing!

Question Author
OK purpose, as you wish, If a 14 year old girl was fostered into a standard family, there would be a nuclear structure a man and woman in partnership, fostering children because they feel the need. It's not impossible that the man would abuse the girl but unlikely. Now 2 blokes living to gether with the girl? different? thoughts so, not change the sex to boy and change the blokes to gay, are we there yet?
Possibly because there IS no distinction...?
