Ooh, James Dobson is going to hate this: A new study has found that the kids of lesbian parents turn out just as well-adjusted as their peers. What’s more, they have fewer behavioral problems and greater self-confidence. That is to say, lesbian parents not only do just as well as hetero households on the child-rearing front, but they actually manage to do some things better. Who’s “focusing on the family” now, huh?

Good news for Mother Gussie and Big Moms. Bad news for Daddy 007 and Yankee Mom. Considering Katherine and I were complete dorks growing up, I’d say we lost the “well-adjusted” benefit. We’ll blame that on our set of hetero parents.
