The Age (14 June 2010) reports on a new study published in the online edition of the journal Pediatrics on June 7, in which researchers found children born to and raised by lesbian couples were better off socially, academically and more competent than their peers.

The study followed 154 pregnant lesbians between 1986-92 to create the world's "largest, longest running, prospective, longitudinal study of same-sex-parented families."
