Adoption in gay or lesbian couples
LGBT adoption is the adoption of children by lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) persons. This may be in the form of a joint adoption by a same-sexcouple, adoption by one partner of a same-sex couple of the other's biological child (step-parent adoption), and adoption by a single LGBT person.

Adoption by same-sex couples is however prohibited by a majority of countries, although debates in many jurisdiction take place to allow it. The mainconcern raised by those opposed to LGBT adoption is the question of whether same-sex couples have the ability to be adequate parents. As the matter is often not specified by law (or deemedunconstitutional), legalization often takes place via judicial opinions.
