I see no reason to discriminated againist anyone how is welling to open up there home to help a child in need of a place to stay. I can speak on this for two reason. The first is that I am a lesbian and have been most of  my life. The second reason is that i have been in foster care since I was one years olds. I have never been adopted or stayed a one home for more then a four years. I am now nineteen years old and i'm still in foster care. I quite sure that the child in foster care do not care about what type of people they live with as long as they are loved and cared for. So why should the system dicriminated because of race, gender, sexual orientation, or even age. Why should any of these thing matter. When there is a big need for foster parents. I beilive the  only thing that should matter is the child. The LOVE and SUPPORT should be the only thing that matters. Trust me i should know.
