That's simply untrue. My own daughter has faced this with her child and was very concerned. Both have been very well supported by the school and everyone else involved. There is nothing but praise from her. No decisions have been made, but lots of assessments and advice are being given. Time is being taken and a way found for everyone to be comfortable and much happier than they were. If you suggested she was a pedophile to my daughter, to her face, I think you would be well advised to run as fast as you can. Why is it not true? It's true for parents my area. Fair play to your daughter for standing up and being concerned and expressing her views. I am not saying the teachers are pedophiles. What I am saying is those with power are trying to normalise pedophilia. Phrases like "young person attracted" instead of peodophile is an attempt to normalise it. That and the added sex curriculum for primary school and infant children.

And the project has clearly been a sucessful one. Is it not more that a generation growing up in a particularly socially conservative place have felt stifled by that and therefore pushed harder the other way? The young in Ireland have seen what an overly conservative, religious society looks like and, rightly or wrongly, have voted for a more progressive path.

Ireland does whatever the EU tells them to do. The EU tell them to jump and Ireland says how far.

My point was more just trying to explain the cultural shift in Ireland beyond just vaguely hinting at globalists - we're already seeing a bit of swing back the other way with the resistance to migrants and no doubt this will be reflected in the next set of elections.

Thats fair enough. Guess my point is that whatever way the vote goes the politicians are still the EUs lapdogs and still do whatever they are told.

Yeah, the media and elites feeding them feminism and social liberalism and changing to socially liberal laws and selling everything out to corporates for decades has had no effect on them whatsoever. 'Progressive'?....yeah just like a tumour is....the idealogy that worsens all the social metrics....pathological individualism. Edited by Stirlingsays (16 Jun 2023 12.02pm)

There are ways for any parent to raise concerns, either with the head, the governors, the parent/teacher association or the education board. If those fail, write to the MP or the local newspaper. Surely any "sex education" at a primary school is going to be very basic and more a recognition of the differences between people and the need to respect everybody than anything else? We now live in a different world where all kinds of things can easily be seen online. That cannot just be ignored and children need to be prepared to cope with it and know how to ask questions without shame.

Boring boring boring.

Your point was far more reductionist as mine has multiple factors for its causes. 'Religious oppression'? You are aware that no one was ever mandated to follow a religion aren't you. Whereas everyone has to accept social liberalism's laws and economic realities. It has its own oppressions in free speech and economic and idealogical strait jackets.

Societal trends are never going to be explained purely by one thing, and it's just an obvious fact that the overbearing nature of religion in Ireland would have had an impact on its culture - there is nothing contentious in that.

How can teenagers and children be affected by 'decades' of religious oppression? Also, I think that's a bit racist to describe Ireland in such a manner, within this timescale. Religious oppression was, arguably, thematic further back in time but Ireland has been moving away from that for a while now. Are we to assume the radical left wing ideology will soon be sweeping the far more religiously oppressed Middle East in forthcoming years? Were the Germans, an advanced nation at the time, allowing Nazism to run rampant more as a result of rebellion against religion than Goebbels and co.'s propaganda campaigns?` You're hanging to quite a weak argument there. I'd also argue people forever bleating on about what they subjectively identify as, to escape the failures of their actual existence, wanting to enshrine their non-scientific delusions in law, fly flags and hold parades as far more boring than anything else. It's quite ironic to counter an argument by accusing people of being 'reductionist' and weighting your position by denouncing them as 'boring'.
