"Defining family is a difficult task", yes to the church a successful family is one where the children are considered possessions, subject to the emotional abuse of the parents or physical abuse by the church. In jurisdictions where gays are allowed to form partnerships and adopt children, those children are raised in an atmosphere of love and acceptance. They are taught that discrimination is wrong and what is good behaviour and bad behaviour. Me and my partner have raised 3 sons and a daughter, our house was always a welcoming place for all their friends. Many of their friends came to us to discuss their problems and we could only hope that the guidance we provided was helpful. As our children left home, it was an amazing thing that a lot of their friends still sought us out for advice. It wasn't that we were so enlightened, but the fact was that we were more stable than their home situations.These are the things that the church refuses to acknowledge, more the pity.
