Well.I agree with you.But the law proposal,wich the Italian Senate was examining,didn'tcontemplate adoption for homosexual couples in general but only the stepchild adoption. That means if in a homosexual couples one partner have a child the other one may adopte him.
The Italian governement took away from the proposal law the stepchild adoption to surmount the opposition of Catholic Senators. So ,for now, the adoption in Italy is not espected for homosexual couples.
The governement will propose a new law about adoption in general.
