Whole Debate 3: Should Schools Teach about Gender Identity & Sexual Orientation?
About this episode
This special episode is for those who love a binge listen. Here's the "Should Schools Teach About Gender Identity and Sexual Orientation?" debate in one convenient download. Expect a seamless exploration of this thought-provoking debate as three parents share their raw thoughts and opinions without holding back.
We kick things off with guests sharing their quick 200-word LIFE STORIES, followed by the THE P THAT FITS ME segment where they reveal if they see themselves as Progressive, Predictable, or perhaps Polarising. Host Danusia also dishes her take in the DISHING THE DIRT segment, before diving into the core debate in GET UP ON YOUR HIGH HORSE.
In the IF THIS, THEN THAT section, the consequences of teaching gender identity and sexual orientation in schools are laid bare, without any sugarcoating. We delve into the ONE HABIT each guest adopts based on their stance, shedding light on how beliefs influence actions.
As the debate wraps up, Danusia tackles the question herself: should schools teach her ten children about these topics? Reflect on whether this debate challenged your perspective or prompted a rethink of your beliefs, because ultimately, did it make you think? At Parents Who Think, we're all about sparking thought, not dictating it.
