We certainly do need laws which help society to be formed of united
families. Laws are made to foster the common good, and strong families
are part of this common good.

We hear repeating over and over that the most important resource
of a country is its youth: the family unit plays a fondamental
role in allowing society to have happy, serene, mentally stable,
idealistic, capable of effort..., youth.

Laws are also made to foster the particular good of the individuals,
and if any one has been lucky enough to live his or her childhood
and youth in a united family, he would't exchange that against
anything else. I, anyway, wouldn't.

Maybe you haven't been so lucky, but that's not a reason to prevent
others to have this opportunity.
