- Title
Children Raised by Same Sex Parents are Thriving.
- Authors
Fremstad, Shawn
- Abstract
Finally, a recently published meta-analysis looking at 32 studies and six child outcomes concluded that the "overall effect size of having same-sex parents on the developmental outcomes of the children [in these studies] was positive and significantly different from that of heterosexual parents." Reczek's review includes a number of post-Obergefell studies that use US data from large-scale, nationally representative federal government surveys like the National Health Interview Survey and the American Community Survey (ACS). For example, using the ACS, Boertien and Bernadi find "no effect of parental union sex composition on school progress within any area or among any group studied.".
