London, Nov 15 Lesbians make better parents than a man and a woman, says a British expert.

According to Stephen Scott, director of research at the National Academy for Parenting Practitioners, kids who are taken care of by lesbian couples are more aspirational, reports The Times.

Speaking at the launch at the think tank Demos of a report on the influence of character on life, Scott said: "Lesbians make better parents than a man and a woman."

Experts have also backed Scott's comments.

Over the years, scientists have found that children brought up by female couples are more aspirational and more confident in championing social justice. They exhibit no more tendencies towards homosexuality than the offspring of heterosexual parents.(ANI)
