Certain topics are worth studying

Has there ever been a scientific study regarding the success stories of children who were placed in orphanages versus foster homes? My suspicion is that those who developed in orphanages, which has fallen out of favor, are much more successful than those children who were placed in foster homes.

It would be interesting to know what the actual statistical analysis is regarding the difference. Orphanages are supported by individual or religious organizations at no taxpayer cost. Foster homes are paid by taxpayer dollars.

As long as we are on scientific analysis, has any study been done to determine why human beings become homosexual? It is my personal opinion that it is a genetic defect, since it runs contrary to the laws of nature. Nevertheless, I have never heard any studies that have been done regarding this issue.

Since science has done numerous studies about genetic defects, why has there not been a study regarding homosexuality? If the defect can be corrected, why not proceed?

In conclusion, perhaps we need to stress science over political correctness as it pertains to the above subjects for the benefit of humanity.
