The Seattle Times has a good editorial reinforcing what I said in my previous post about the recent Washington state ruling that gives a non-bio mom the right to seek parental rights. The key point:
This dispute could have been avoided if the Washington Legislature had given the two women the ability to get married. The argument over same-sex marriage has been too much focused on social acceptance of homosexuals. That is part of it, but the more urgent part is in defining the rights and responsibilities of adults who already are rearing children.
Hear, hear.
