Should same-sex parent families be discussed at school?
A primary school teacher reads the class a children's book about a family with two dads.
- Great: every family should be able to see itself in it
- Yes, but letting parents know
- That's not the school's role
What's at stake: The debate is about the role of school: showing the diversity of today's families, or leaving these subjects to parents.
The left's argument
Showing the diversity of families helps children respect others and themselves.
The centre's argument
Read this book among others about diverse families, while informing the parents.
The right's argument
Parents should remain free to choose how and when to address these subjects.
