      That's just a conspiracy theory sadly. You've yet to provide any evidence or facts, merely suppositions

      Here's a large study that does show harm due to same sex parenting on children. See, http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0049089X12000610 …

      So, I could break down why that study is wrong for so many reasons, but there is one glaring idiocy; they didn't look at "same-sex parents"

      They looked at "children who had reported their parents having at least one same-sex experience"

      True, but it was a national, randomly sample...not one of those biased convenience samples promoted by media and leftist academics.

      Perhaps, but they literally didn't look at the thing you say they did. It's not a study of same-sex parents in any way

      My point is that those earlier studies were inadequate. N too small. Convenience samples. Failed to look at impact of separation on kids.

      Well, the 2017 study I cited was robust for most of those concerns and still found no significant issues

      No it was flawed due to an extremely small sample size of the couples actually studied. With numbers that small, nothing's significant.

      That's just a basic misunderstanding of statistics I'm afraid

      In practical terms, the study you are ignorantly dismissing could determine a difference of about 1% or over

          Given the number of variables that they examined, it's striking that there were no significant differences
