Italy Court Urges More Rights For Children Of Gay Couples
03/09/21 AT 1:53 PM
Italy s Constitutional Court on Tuesday said the country urgently needs a law on the rights of children of same-sex couples, in a step campaigners said did not go far enough.
The court issued rulings in two separate cases, relating to a lesbian couple who had children using medically-assisted reproduction abroad, and to two men in a civil partnership who had a child via surrogacy in Canada.
Same-sex couples are not allowed to adopt children in Italy, although campaigners say some exceptions are made to allow the adoption of a partner s child where the birth parent agrees.

Gone are the days of the whole neighbourhood descending on the ceremony to ululate and dine with the happy couples new beginning. Couples have to now think about how to celebrate with close family and friends without putting anybody’s health at risk.
