Reply #55: I can remember when the family with one child was considered odd.

Now it's the other way around. Can't we just agree that people should be free to build the families that suit them personally? Why does everything have to come in a uniform package? The adult couple, gay or straight is a family. The couple, gay or straight with one or ten children is a family. The woman with an adopted child is a family. The group of single people who live in seperate quarters but who are all there for each other is another kind of family. As long as family means home, what does it matter what the form is?
