A child needs both a mother and a father. A boy needs a good father to model for him how to be a man and how to be a good father. . And a girl needs a good father to give an idea of how to pick out a good man to marry and not a loser. A little girl's first exposure to a man who loves her is her father. And it gives her a warm, safe feeling toward men and toward getting married and raising kids.
Both girls and boys need a mother b/c of the womanly nurturing and unconditional love. A little girl needs her mother to teach her how to be a woman and how to raise kids and treat others. And a mother teaches her daughter how to cook and mend and bake and wash clothes and clean house, hopefully . She either teachers her methodically, or by modeling or; the girl learns by osmosis.Boys should learn that too from their mother, so they can take care of themselves and their house hold, if necessary .

Since I do know who my parents were, it's difficult to put myself in that position and express an opinion. I often think though, when I hear adults speak about the biological parents they hope to find, they are in somewhat of a fantasy world. Many parents are NOT what they envision them to be. Parents living right in the home often don't teach their sons and daughters much of anything nor even pay attention to them. The sitcom family portrayed on television, is often far from reality.
