A resource from Christian Concern, to warn about LGBT+ History month. It is widely known that in June every year, schools celebrate Pride. But LGBT+ History has become a month-long annual celebration of LGBT+ rights and related civil rights movements. Some schools are taking the opportunity to go beyond simply teaching historical facts and are actively promoting sexual identities for children across many areas of the curriculum under the guise of diversity and tolerance. So what can you do as parent if you have concerns about LGBT History month in your child’s school?

Increasing numbers of parents are seeing the positive differences in home-educated children from their schooled peers, and the resultant growth in family-based learning has begun to alarm those in power.

This helpful and thorough document was prepared by the Legal Counsel of the Christian Legal Centre and is a legal briefing. It particularly addresses the proposed “homeschool” register, the expansion of the definition of independent schools and the regulation of out-of-school education. It discusses the discriminatory nature of the proposed legislation, the Children’s Wellbeing and School’s Bill, and defences to it that are available through current human rights jurisprudence.

Digital pornography addiction is widespread, and alarmingly, seems to be swiftly becoming a norm in Christian communities. Experience is teaching that much-relied-upon parental controls are not enough. There is an urgency to addressing this, if the reality is that protecting your home – with Internet filters, etc. – doesn’t fully protect your children. This article suggests an important course of action – the engagement of Christian communities in responding to this crisis of pornography addiction among the young.
