Children are the future?

Why is it that liberals believe that noone should have children except for homosexuals. I was watching a television show the other day, and the woman had a friend who was an attorney. The woman had accidentally become pregnant, and the attorney friend, who was a woman, stated that she had ruined her life. It made me think about women in the workplace. I am all for women in the workplace and for maternity leave. Companies should allow for women who work for them to have maternity leave and most do.
But there is a movement that preaches that women shouldn’t leave the workplace at all. Women should not have children and not take maternity leave because women should be equal to men and by taking off time it shows a weakness. This of course is ridiculous. Women are equal to men, but women and men are not the same. But this liberal mentality against families is spreading. Women and men shouldn’t marry, they shouldn’t have children, these things only tie people down and prevent them from progressing in their work.
On the other hand, gay and lesbian couples are pushing for their "right" to have children. And the same people that are discouraging women from having children are supporting the gay and lesbians in their campaign. The need to advance in work is apparently not as important to gay and lesbians. The logic on the difference isn’t quite clear. It would seem that the stances would contradict each other, yet it is the same people that are pushing both stances. It doesn’t seem to make sense, unless you look at it as an attack against traditional family.
The traditional family for as long a there has been family has been a mother, a father and their children. This is because it requires a man and a woman to have children. A man cannot impregnate another man, and a woman cannot be impregnated by another woman. Now there are non-traditional families. Single parents fall into this category, but we still consider them families, because things happen such as divorce or even death. The other people that wish to consider themselves non-traditional families are gay and lesbian couples. Most states do not recognize gay and lesbians couples as families. The states do not allow them to marry, and adoption is also difficult for gay and lesbian couples, as I believe it should be.
Non-traditional families by choice are an attack against the family, not an attack against the traditional family, but an attack on the family. The population growth in areas and countries where these non-traditional families are being accepted and endorsed, is dwindling. Countries like France which has been an advocate of gay rights, chosen non-traditional families, is dying. They are losing their French culture, and the French population is changing into that of North African, where traditional families are taught and practiced.
Gay and lesbian couples seek to have a child, typically, not children. And the other liberals are advocating that non-gay and lesbians should not have children. If they had it their way, there wouldn’t be anyone left. So in short, children are necessary for any civilization to exist. Without children, there is no growth rate. If gays and lesbians are the only ones to have children, by that I mean adopt children, then we are allowing the future to be raised by those whose values are misguided. Having children is not a burden, and women should be free to choose children over a career.
