Headlines:
Arkansas just took a giant leap backward with LGBTQ rights: same-sex parents will no longer be able to be listed on their kids' birth certificates.
My opinion- THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH LGBTQ RIGHTS. LGBTQ are making mountains out of mole hills again. **SIDE NOTE- Take a look at Italy's laws about adopion, surrogacy, in vitro, etc. WAY stricter than here.**
What rights are being violated here? Really- the rights of the unknowing child (if anyone's) are being violated because they are being lied to from the moment they are born.
From my point of view- this should be supported as a scientifically backed move for informational purposes.
How are we supposed to track things like genetic defects, genetically linked diseases, hereditary issues, cancers??
I had to go through all sorts of cancer screenings because my adoptive mother had breast cancer and its hereditary, and in turn they missed screening me for all the issues my biological mother had that she died from.... and died young. I am more at risk for not knowing what my genes are made up of then for having a dead beat mom attached to my birth certificate. Here are a list of other genetic/hereditary disorders that thus run rampant due to incomplete biological parent records....

In reality, there should be TRUE birth certificates, and then you should pay for an 'amended' one for all those who want to cry about what is the truth and what is not- and the truth being that you contributed no genetic material to the child and want to pretend that has nothing to do with their ensuing life. SMH.
My adoptive mother guilt trips me about all the lies she told over the years to make my life 'normal' and to convince people I was always her child and always would be. Actions speak louder than words here people- even than written word. A mother and a mommy can be two different things- It's your job to prove your a mommy and it's the bureau of Vital Records and Health Statistics job to document factual information.
