Research evidence supports the notion that the major impact of parenting on child development comes not from the sexual orientation of the parents but from the commitment of those involved and the quality of parenting that the child receives. The Pink Guide to Adoption for Lesbians and Gay Men is a wonderful resource for anyone negotiating the complex journey of adoption.

At Pace, we get a range of calls from people who are at various stages of adopting. For example, they might not know where to start or which agencies to approach or they might feel that they are the only gay people thinking about adopting, and therefore feel isolated and want to meet others like themselves. We also hear from people who feel unsupported by their families or have questions about their own suitability as lesbian or gay parents.
