Study: Children with same-sex parents are socially well-adjusted

A study by Dr. Mirjam Fischer and colleagues at the University of Cologne’s Institute of Sociology and Social Psychology (ISS) shows that children and adolescents with same-sex parents are just as well adjusted as those with different-sex parents. In this study, 62 six- to sixteen-year-olds with same-sex parents were compared with 72 peers with different-sex parents regarding prosocial behavior, hyperactivity, peer problems, emotional adjustment, and general behavioral problems. The results of the study, “Behavioral Outcomes of Children with Same-Sex Parents in The Netherlands,” were published in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health.
