Allstate Insurance has produced a new 2-minute video about a little girl who will never know what it is like to have a mother.
"Here's to Firsts: Family" documents two gay men who reflect on getting "married" and adopting an infant girl in 2015.
With one man's arm around his male "wife," one of them says about the child, "The second we held her, we knew that she was ours."
"We're her dads," he exclaims.
The Allstate promotion does not share the reality that this child will grow up without the nurture that only a mother can provide. Nor does Allstate recognize the emotional trauma and questions this child will endure growing up in a home with two men.
Studies predominantly show that children raised in homosexual environments tend to struggle emotionally more than their peers, are highly more susceptible to drug and alcohol abuse, and often suffer severe depression as young adults.
God has ordained that a traditional mother and father are the best for raising children. Allstate has abandoned God's design for the family, and thus promotes a lifestyle that is not good for children.
