New research has found that the children of gay dads conceived via surrogacy are happier and more well-adjusted than the children of heterosexual couples conceived naturally, reports LGBTQ Nation.
The study – published in early November in Family Process – examined 67 two-dad families and 67 families with heterosexual parents – all from Europe. All children in the study were between 1.5 and 10 years old, and for the gay families, all children were genetically related to one of their dads.
The results, according to the researchers: “The children of gay fathers via surrogacy seem to function better, on average, than the children of heterosexual parents.” The study also found that gay fathers had “more effective parenting styles, greater coparenting quality, and higher couple relationship satisfaction” as compared to heterosexual parents.
