Does it not occur to Ken that there can be good Catholic same-sex families?

Placing kids with same-sex families is infinitely better than placing them with CAtholic families who will abuse them by filling their minds with hate.

Harry, thanks for this information. I will send The Director of Catholic Care Mark Wiggins an e-mail to clarify what he means by the term families. I will as suggested, make a polite enquiry into whether or not this is heterosexist labeling on the part of Catholic Care. If this is still aimed at heterosexual families exclusively, I will also enquire into what they intend to do about changing this in order to comply with goverment regulations.

Catholic Care still states on its website that it places children with "families", by which it very clearly means heterosexual familes. The Director of Catholic Care is called Mark Wiggins (mark.wiggin@catholic-care.org.uk). You may feel to email him, as I am about to do, and ask him whether he accepts gay couples for adoption and if not when he intends to comply with the law. The repsonses should be interesting. I counsel politeness in the first enquiries.
