I'm not totaly sure about this one. On one hand I would want to say that homo sexuals should have the same rights, on the other hand I'm also tempted to take the childs wellfare into account. Not because I'm saying gay couples will automaticly be bad parents, but because the kid will be picked on at school ect. And thats only one of the reasons. It can be very strange for a child if it is raised with two of the same gender, while all his friends have a father and a mother, and it might get so strange for him that he will feel like an outcast at some point.
Young children need love from both genders, up to their 8th or 9th anyway. I think it would be very selfish for a gay couple to adopt a kid without thinking of the childs emotions and reaction. So with that, my idea would to only let gay couples adopt children that can decide for themselfs if they want two males or two females as parents.
