This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. There are only legal rights and obligations regarding certain family members, and it's not clear how you want people to be able to enter new familial relationships with other people, or what rights and obligations (if any) you want this to result in.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.

We have published the following petition, which you might like to sign:
