Alright then.

Heterosexuals can adopt, and put up for adoption, and homosexuals are just going to complain until they are given the same rights as everyone else, but I of course feel that if gays have all of the same rights as straights, then a lot of things can and most likely will go awry.

No it won't. Life as we know it will function in the exact same way. The streets will not be filled with homosexuals wearing leather pants and clogs.

It is a completely different scenario. The children them selfs may not be gay. Not only this but I've never really seen a gay person being bullied I think you are exaggerating quite a bit.

Some kids will be embarrassed to be around their family because most people hate gay people.

You can't think for them, they may be more embarrassed about their father wearing clogs rather then him holding a males hand. It's natural for a teenager to be embarrassed by his/her family whether the parents are homosexual or not.

If their parents are gay then they probably will also turn gay.

Do you have any evidence backing up this statement? And even if you did who cares.

If they adopt they should be ready for the future of their child if they really care about him/her.

Every parent should.
