Katy Faust had two mothers. So now the pastor’s wife opposes surrogacy, a darling of LGBTQ “rights.”
“Sociologists largely agree on three things: Number one, biological parents are the most invested in, connected to and protective of kids. Biological parents advantage children in ways that unrelated adults do not,” Faust says. Number two, men and women are different, and those differences benefit children in the home… Number three, losing a parent is traumatizing to death, divorce, incarceration.”
All of a sudden, researches from 2005 suddenly find “magically when you study same sex parenting, somehow none of that matters,” Faust says. “I don’t want to say (the studies) are junk science, but very few of those studies are going to meaningfully tell us something about the population at large.”
Studies from 2005 onward affirm that “love is all you need,” but they languish in significant scientific shortcomings: 1) they’re not random, 2) they don’t ask children old enough to tell their experience, 3) they don’t look at outcomes after the kids growing up simply because they haven’t been around long enough, Faust says.
The “love is all you need to make a family” campaign is “slick” propaganda, she says. “It’s a very slick way of promoting and incentivizing some of the things we know that you demonstrated a primal wound in the life of a child.”
Before 2005, researchers demonstrated that children fared best in the home of their biological mother and father in a low conflict marriage, Faust says.
Things changed: “In 2005-2015, a strange thing happened: There was a glut of studies that came on the market showing children fared no different if they were raised by two mothers or two fathers,” Faust says. “We had an agenda to push. We had an institution to redefine. We had a marital history and tradition that needed to be updated and modernized.”
What you have is same-sex parents who want a child — and they’re telling kids how they ought to feel. Even if the kid wishes for a dad (or a mom), the parents very soothingly tell them they’re sorry, but the most important thing is love.
In the words of Faust, the soothing words do nothing to heal the “primal wound.“
Kids of surrogacy or lack of a parent show unfavorable outcomes, Faust says, “especially when it related to challenges in school, high rates of depression, anxiety, daily fearfulness and daily crying.”
Here’s a great irony: Leftists loved The Handmaiden’s Tales about a dystopian patriarchy consigning some women to the role of being baby producers. It was a stab at Christianity.
But now in the reversal that reality brings, it is the LGBTQ crew that is doing the patriarchal system of using some women to make babies for those who cannot.
