Summary/Abstract: Family planning involves planning the number of children and timing of birth or adoption. A family and its planning are the rights guaranteed by the Constitution, but the question is whether they are equally guaranteed to all or homosexuals are discriminated against legislation, the practice of States and their authorities. The results of the analysis of longitudinal studies done in this field in the United States in the last decade, dealing with the experiences of same sex couples in the role of parents and their children would get a better insight into the challenges and the problems that they face every day. Also, the emphasis will be on the assessment of the effects of family environment on the life and development of the children, and the ways in which they overcome the challenges that children in traditional families do not face. Given the fact, that the adoption is one way of planning and implementing family, one of the questions that arises is whether the adoption of a child by a same-sex couple in accordance with their best interests, which is the standard that the law expressly provides as requirement for adoption.
