Well, nice to see this one lady speaking about the gay marriage working but the polyamorous one "stealing intimacy from the parents". That is blatant cognitive dissonance. Multiple partners situation, anthropologically, was not even a minority : it was the norm, before it was outlawed for power and religious reasons.

Totally disagree with the 'it's great for kids to have other adults around'. How completely confusing is that for young kids to have a revolving door of adults around, bonding with some only to then stop seeing them and on it goes. Do what you like fine but don't talk bs about polyamory being fine for kids

Everyone but the polyamorous woman are saying ridiculous things. It’s one thing to have questions but quite another to basically call polyamorous people bad parents.
