In Friday’s RNS report Mary Ellen Lowney reports on gay parents concerned about their rights: Like any other parent, Karen Bellavance-Grace cherishes the moments big and small: a walk with her sons, a visit with grandparents, a review of a stellar report card. But as a gay mother who adopted her children through the Massachusetts Department of Social Services, she also watches with dismay as Gov. W. Mitt Romney maneuvers to allow the Roman Catholic Church to wiggle around anti-discrimination laws that protect gay adoptions. Romney filed legislation recently to allow Catholic adoption agencies to refuse to consider gays on religious grounds. The move followed a decision by Catholic Charities of Boston to halt its adoption services after learning that it had to accept gay applicants to comply with state law.
