"As experience shows, the absence of sexual bipolarity creates obstacles to the normal development of children possibly placed within these unions. They lack the experience of motherhood or fatherhood. Inserting children into homosexual unions through adoption actually means doing violence to these children in the sense that their state of weakness is taken advantage of to introduce them into environments that do not favor their full human development. Certainly such a practice would be seriously immoral and would be in open contradiction with the principle, also recognized by the UN International Convention on the Rights of the Child, according to which the best interest to be protected in any case is that of the child, the most weak and defenseless (from the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Considerations regarding the projects for the legal recognition of unions between homosexual people )"
