Half a million children live in foster homes today and 100‚000 are in critical need of adoption‚ according to information from the Child Welfare League of America (Rosario‚ 2006‚ p.16).

Adoption by homosexual couples is controversial‚ and it’s important to consider the advantages and disadvantages as well. I feel that homosexuals who adopt can be just as loving and nurturing as a traditional family adoption. Studies show that same sex parents are more stable than heterosexual parents; and according to Fredrick Hertz‚ are more likely to stay

“Adoption is not about finding children for families‚ it’s about finding families for children” says Joyce Maguire Pavao. Then why is this statement being questioned when it comes to same-sex adoption? Many same-sex couples‚ after a lot of struggle‚ have been able to adopt and have changed a child’s life. Allowing same-sex couples to adopt is a powerful step towards success and it helps in many ways‚ which is why same-sex couples should be able to adopt. Their love for the children is the same as

The Rationale of Death Penalty Capital punishment‚ as the highest form of punishment a state would uphold has been a long debated issue. Often dubbed as Death Penalty‚ Deborah White defined it as “the pre-meditated and planned taking of a human life by the state in response to a crime committed by that legally convicted person.” Personally‚ I’m not in favour of making death penalty the highest form of punishment.

The comparison in Figure 1 shows the number of children adopted by U.S. citizens in 1990 and 2001. It illustrates that the number of international adoptions increased dramatically
