Study says gays and lesbians have as well adjusted kids as straight couples

For those of you who know gay and lesbian couples with children, this will be old news. For those who have not had this first hand experience, I encourage you to read this article from Yahoo:

Adolescents who have two moms as parents are no different from teens growing up with a mother and a father, a new study finds.

On measures of psychosocial well-being, school functioning, and romantic relationships and behaviors, the teens with same-sex parents were as well adjusted as their peers with opposite-sex parents. The authors found very few differences between the two groups. A more important predictor of teens' psychological and social adjustment, they found, is the quality of the relationships they have with their parents.
