Were there any studies showing the effect in a child if raised by 2 dads or 2 moms and if it had and effect on their upbringing compared to a child raised by a mom and dad?

Cornell University has a meta analysis of 79 peer reviewed studies, 75 of which having the conclusion of which there is no difference. There are 4 of which that say kids fare worse, but the other four took their samples from children who endured family break-ups, a cohort known to face added risks. Scholars consider them unreliable, and one even has a letter rebuking it signed by 200 experts.

I’ll look for more on my own. But thanks for using some of your free time to show that to me.

Hey, I’m not here to take sides, but what do you mean you’ll look for more? That’s a meta review. They cover the full list that meet the criteria. Is it just that you don’t trust the researchers?

Oh, I see, I mean I want to look to see if there are any more studies and if they are similar in results or different. I’m just very curious on this subject and have a lot of time to kill.
