ADVANCE FOR USE SUNDAY, JUNE 18, 2017 AND THEREAFTER-This April 22, 2017 photo provided by Dylan Perot shows Dr. Christopher Harris, a Los Angeles-based pediatrician, and his daughter Maria, 14, whom he adopted as an infant, at an LGBT families event Los Angeles. For more than a year, he worked with a church-affiliated adoption agency, taking parenting classes, submitting to home visits. Yet his application never progressed, and he finally deduced that it was because he was gay. He reached another dead end with a second agency. "It was frustrating for me to get passed over," Harris said. "As a pediatrician, I look at the science and see there are no data that children raised by gay and lesbian parents don't do well."
