Well good luck to the kid at school. You people, merely those who simply disvoted my post or replied with "Your opinion is wrong"(nice antithesis there), need a reality check. If a kid would have to tell his classmates that he has two fathers he'd get bullied into suicide. We're not living in Utopia unfortunately. So if you seriously think society is ready for that(in general, not just one in 100.000) you simply have no idea of the practical reality that there is. I'm dealing with 3-15 year olds everyday in my job and know how they're thinking. And in europe you don't even have the stereotypical jocks vs nerds syndrom.
Okay, you clearly have a very ignorant viewpoint when it comes to gay rights and parenting in general, but that is okay because you can change that. The cure for ignorance is knowledge. I am going to educate you because it is people who share your thoughts who are preventing homosexuals from getting the same basic rights as everyone else. Let's look at some typical arguments (myths) that ignorant and or bigoted individuals use to make homosexuals second class citizens who can't marry or adopt children. This is going to be a long post but I hope you read it so you can understand why your viewpoint is wrong and detrimental to society.
1. Children of gay parents will be bullied into suicide because their parents are gay!!!
Probably the worst argument you could possibly make. Let's ban gays from parenting because their children will be bullied! Okay fine, but let's ban fat people from having children. Other students will eventually see how fat their parents are and will bully the children into oblivion. Let's also ban interracial couples from having children. A child that has a black and white parent? They will be bullied into suicide!!!
See why this argument doesn't work? We can apply this to any situation where the child of parents may be bullied. Terrible argument, and a pathetic excuse to make homosexuals second class citizens. I believe this to be one of the worst arguments against gay adoption because it quite simply sums up to "bigots will make fun of them, so don't allow it" Is that really how we want to run things?
2. Gay couples are more likely to produce children who are gay.
Actually no. There is no evidence to support this theory at all. It is simply a bigoted, ignorant viewpoint. In any case, even if this was true (it's not) there is nothing wrong with being homosexual.
3. Homosexuals are incapable of providing a healthy environment for children to be raised in.
False statement. There is no evidence to support this claim. However, there is plenty of evidence to support that children who grow up in foster homes without any parents at all are extremely disadvantaged when compared to children who were raised by loving parents, whether their parents are gay or straight.
There is no scientific basis for concluding that lesbian mothers or gay fathers are unfit parents on the basis of their sexual orientation

Here is some food for thought.
According to the most current AFCARS (Adoption and Foster Care Analysis and Reporting System Report) Report, released in September 2010, there were approximately 423,773 children in the U. S. in foster care on September 30, 2009.

So about half a million children in the United States alone are in foster care. That is half a million children being raised in unstable conditions, with no parents. Let's look at how foster care effects children.
Children in foster care have disproportionately high rates of physical, developmental, and mental health problems and often have many unmet medical and mental health care needs.
"Most of these children [in foster care] have been the victims of repeated abuse and prolonged neglect and have not experienced a nurturing, stable environment during the early years of life. Such experiences are critical in the short- and long-term development of a child's brain and the ability to subsequently participate fully in society."

To conclude this wall of text, there is no good arguments against gay adoption. Everything I have said I have backed up with credible sources. If anyone wants to dispute what I have said they must do the same.
