Utah judge rules lesbians can't foster a child - CNN.com
The judge I guess is being very tight-lipped about where he got his research from. But I think I can take a stab at it. From the UK Guardian citing the 2010 Prince's Trust Youth Index Survey, the largest of its kind that measures the wellbeing of youth from year to year and seeks to pinpoint issues that are causing unrest in them as they grow from teens to adults:
The judge's research undoubtedly included this:
Teenagers without parental role model are 67% less likely to get a job
Young men with no male role models in their lives and women without a mother figure struggle to keep their lives on track, a hard-hitting report warns today. The Prince’s Trust youth index, the largest survey of its kind, found that....67 per cent more likely to be unemployed than their counterparts. They are also significantly more likely to stay unemployed for longer than their peers, the report suggests....It found that young men with no male role model are 50 per cent more likely to abuse drugs and young females in the corresponding position are significantly more likely to drink to excess..
Young men with no male role model to look up to were twice as likely to turn or consider turning to crime as a result of being unemployed...The report, which was based on interviews with 2,170 16 to 25-year-olds...These young men are also three times more likely to feel down or depressed all of the time and significantly more likely to admit that they cannot remember the last time they felt proud...They are also significantly less likely to feel happy and confident than those with male role models, according to the figures....The Prince’s Trust report, which was carried out by YouGov, suggests young people without male role models are more than twice as likely to lack a sense of belonging
In Utah people living together must be married in order to adopt. But this judge has found that even if they are married, what type of marriage it is weighs on how a child will fare under the home.
The problem started when the USSC made the mistake of finding that a behavior = a static race of people. And based on that false premise, awarded just their favorite type of deviant sex practitioners the "right" to marry. Besides that act adding new legislative content and language to the US Constitituion without the approval of the actual legislative Body: Congress, it also set up a situation where the other de facto party to the marriage contract suddenly found themselves in the lurch: children.
Never before had the contract they implicitly and undeniably shared in said "you are now institutionally-deprived of either a mother or father".. Neither children nor their attorneys had a seat at the table this last Spring when the USSC decided for the first time to deprive them of either a mother or father without their, or the consent of their states as guardians' consent. This radical contract revision was missing one of the main parties to the contract. And because it was, a premature and extinguishable decision was made to their detriment.
This judge must also have read the CAPTA laws wherein no state may engage in child abuse or child negligence. In Utah, their state has determined that depriving a child in marriage of either a father or mother is a negligent deprivation. As such, this judge removed a foster daughter from a lesbian home. There will be an appeal of course, and those appeals will make their way up to the USSC to ask them why they did not invite one of the parties to the marriage contract to the revision table. The 5 Justices on the USSC will have to explain to society in their own words why they felt the power to revise such a contract without one of the parties present; and to their researched-detriment.
Perhaps the 5 Justices on the USSC should have done their own research on depriving children of either a mother or father and not made this judge in Utah do it for them.
