Given marriage equality is now the law of the land, it may have seemed that same-sex couples are now fully protected from the myths that their families are inferior. This week, however, a judge in Utah cited anti-gay research to justify removing a child from her same-sex foster parents’ care.
According to KUTV, Judge Scott Johansen ruled that April Hoagland and Beckie Peirce were unfit parents because they are a same-sex couple. He ordered the baby they’ve been raising for three months be removed from their home in the next week to be placed with heterosexual foster parents.
Hoagland and Peirce are married and were approved as foster parents earlier this year, passing all inspections, background checks, and interviews. They also are already raising Peirce’s two children, ages 12 and 14. The child’s birth mother is similarly upset by the situation and wishes to see her daughter stay with the couple.
