Objective: The number of homosexual parents in the United States involved in child custody cases is growing. Current recommendations suggest that parents' sexual orientation should not impact these evaluations. This review examines the supporting literature and reports the findings in a useable way for evaluators. Method: The author thoroughly searched the literature using several keywords and databases. Results: Fifteen studies were included. The literature suggested no detrimental impact; however, limitations of this body of literature are noted. Conclusion: The current body of literature suggested parental sexual orientation should not impact child custody recommendations; however, evaluators should understand the multiple limitations to this literature.
