But Mr Varadkar added that parents should have the right to withdraw their children from certain classes if they wished. “Parents know what’s best for their kids. And I think we do need to respect parental choice when it comes to when it comes to them guiding what’s best for their children,” he told journalists in Waterford
The CPSMA also claimed that such a move might add to what it described as “a growing psychological contagion amongst young and vulnerable children”. The “affirmative care model has recently been rejected in Sweden, Finland, the Netherlands and the UK,” it said, while there was “mounting evidence of psychological contagion”. In the UK, “the numbers of children referred to the Gender Identity Development Service rose from 50 a year in 2009 to 2,500 in 2020″.
Parents, raise your children with a strong sense of embodiment, and and unshakable understanding of the natural world - so when they come across such nonsense as gender identity, they will not fall for it but call it out for what it is!
This is the proactive of the parents NOT the schools
He needs to go
This is happening in Irish schools too. We don't want it here either. ⬇️
Not that big a deal I’ve already spoken to my kids about transgender identity as I have friends that are trans. There are trans people all around us it’s only right people learn to accept them and just be nice
LGBWithoutTheT
Teaching kids in primary school about fook off
It’s an amazing a gay man who has no children should is concerned about what other ppls children should learn.
Disgraceful. It's not up to them! I want to opt out!
Children can maybe taught swinging or striptease. Lesbianism and homosexuality is more graphics and shocking. Transvestism is the thing that even lesbians and homosexuals do not clearly comprehend. DO NOT INVOLVE CHILDREN IN EDGE OF SEXUAL BEHAVIORS AFFIRMATION. Adults can refuse
Perverts
Who gives them the right to do this? Giving away our rights so a tiny minority get more rights? This is confusing for our children in schools. More people will homeschool now.
We do not consent we say absolutely no way...
There may be a silver lining to this disgraceful suggestion. Surely this will finally be the last nail in the coffin of Varadkar's political career. This man has shown utter contempt for the people of Ireland.
Of course they would, sure it’s just an email order coming in from the unelected Eu hierarchy.
Transgender is a load of rubbish and these people really need professional help and medication
A pair of 🤡
Who's value judgement ? Seriously I would not give 2 cents for the value judgement of a gay man blatantly disrespecting his partner with a young fella in a sleazy night club.
Continuing the WEF strategy to break up the family unit. Of course they want it.
Your obsession with TG is not healthy. Teach the children about life, money, how to live and keep a job. And tg later on.
Leave those kids alone they need their innocence
Two lying ,cheating ,corrupt WEF serving hypocrites who are a very serious danger to our children and country, Their dangerous agenda and perverted ideology has no place in a civil society ,let alone the schools ,they are the amplifier of everything evil and are void of humanity
Sick as fck
Shocking
This Episode of Dr Phil features Dr Debra Soh who discusses gender dysphoria and how children with others trauma or psychological issues are being misdiagnosed with this condition & having life changing surgeries or on irreversible hormonal therapies
All the more reason to reject it.
😂🤣🤡
Absolutely no way and I'll home school if it happens
Make it stop please 🙏, I’ve had enough
How about Maths, Geography, English, History, Art and more PE? Transgender discussion a primary school classroom is totally bonkers
LeoVaradkar Can humans change sex? Can someone be born in the wrong body?
Too young...
They are he'll bent on taking religion out of schools. They are replacing one fairy-tale with another fairy-tale!
What would Varadkar know about children. How many has he raised
Canada introduced Bill C-16 ie mandating the use of “preferred pronouns” & if you don’t use these pronouns (which are not based on physical or biological facts) then it is considered hate speech that can carry legal penalties.
What started out as a message of acceptance & tolerance has morphed into a radicalised far left ideology that demands children be indoctrinated into this ideology.If you question it you’re labelled a bigot. Unnecessary confusion &anxiety caused to our most vulnerable,our children
As a gay man, this is not the equality I fought for in 2015. Queer theory is hijacking the lgbt movement & making a show of us
In the door of primary schools arrives learning about 94 different genders, meanwhile reading and writing goes out the windows. LeoVaradkar recommended essential reading.
No need to expose children to this BS!
Lol. We've gone from teachers ignoring sex education on the curriculum to deciding we need to inform primary school kids about trans identity. Gotta love Ireland
Ireland has knocked France out of the box for being a Queer Nation
Of course they do the leftist nonces.
So the people/parents say no they don't want it and the government tell them shut up it's going in. Right, if ever you needed proof that they don't work for us you've got it. All WEF agendas they are enforcing 🤬🤬 general election time
So they support anal se and fistingbeung taught to children. I'd love to hear Micheal debate the virtues of why on fisting.
Stop grooming children to satisfy the needs of sick pedos who should not be in power
I think they them he her what ever the fuck trans LGBTQ community needs to watch RTEInvestigates last night, these kids are primary school age, imagine what teaching trans ideology would do to them LeoVaradkar rodericogorman Autism ADHD
Those two
Gay man with NO children wants to show minors pornography. Jail!
Twisted bastards
Corrupt Should be in jail
Out of the government for once and for all!
So that's two. Who else?🤔
The Irish government are trying to take every coastal US far lefty loon idea that slowly emerged over decades (10 million genders, 'no borders, no walls' etc.) and ram it all down a relatively parochial island's gob virtually overnight and wondering why they're getting pushback.
I stand with every word of the CatholicPrimary letter. It is a HIGHLY contested pseudoscience that is in any case deeply age inappropriate for primary school children
Perverts and child grooming enablers. You have to wonder what they have on Micheal Martin to make him support the destruction of Irish culture, the poisoning of the education system and targeting of children like this? ?
Wtf have they got to do with children's education?
Dirty Groomers. These parasites don't serve Irish citizens
Leave de kids alone . There's enough of them messed up already
STOP!!!!!!!
Leave primary kids alone! Can't believe any parent would want this for under 12's.
Unreal
Of course they do because it's part of their masters' plan to DESTROY Ireland.
A childless man wants to teach kids about the world around them...there is enough going on in the world around them that does not need to be introduced to them in what should be a carefree, happy space. Gender identity is not education & should not be an automatic opt in matter.
Our rulers have decided our opinions don’t matter
While “woke” as a perjorative didn’t exist 20 years ago, you could go back to that era, reprint every complaint re: “homosexuality,” update that word with “transgender,” and they’re identical. Somehow, we survived, yes? Cop on.
Of course he would
But of course they do, they are sick twisted perverts with no moral compass, and they can FUCK RIGHT OFF, this is grooming and child abuse plain and simple...
They have a plan.
Why are they always so determined to get at kids? Absolute nonces there in plain sight.
I'm sorry but why are the opinions of the few being forced on the many? This is clearly something the Irish people should have a say in, I guarantee the vast majority do not agree with this at all, parents need to stand up to this very quickly
Continuation of covid, migrants, living crisis, housing, war(!)... Divide and conquer algorithm fear.. Compliance=control
It's literally by definition child abuse.. and makes anyone taking part in this madness a predator.
No way let thembe kids ffs , live your life as an adult as you please but don’t force it on the rest of us especially the kids
This will be the rock these utter tools will perish on.
Replacing one misogynistic belief system for another.
Good Lord.. When is the election.. 😠😵💫
I find it extremely difficult to process some of the things we hear and see with regards transgender, everyone to there own I say, but stay away form mine I will not consent to my kids having to learn about it, they'll make their conclusion when they are old enough to process it.
Leo is unfit for Government GeneralElectionNow
Perhaps parents are better placed to discuss such matters with their children, if and when they deem it appropriate. And perhaps LV and MM might be better served backing the inclusion of homeless children in homes
If you want to teach your kids that information then do yourself but you do not have permission to teach it to my kids.
🐀🐀
Peado's
So
Blocked
The new religion. Teaching kids they might have the ‘wrong body’. Abhorrent.
Leo hangs around in night clubs with trans and gay people every weekend. His views don't surprise me
Theyre competing with the sexy social democrats that's why.
Bring it on pedos
How about teaching children about the real world and what politicians like yourselves really do to their own people, how they manipulate and coerce the media and the population?
They opened the borders to passport burners and now anything goes when teaching the kids too. This is societal re-engineering by our Masters. They know better then we do you see.
All the conservative snowflakes be crying salty tears because he said the trans word
Election can’t come quick enough. These people are out of control.
Sick government world is fukd
I think people need to chill. If kids are to hear about transgender identity - it will be in an age appropriate way. Has anyone seen how light touch the sex Ed programme is in Ireland? The kids are WAY WAY ahead of it.
Of course they do. Wokes!
Keep this rubbish away from Irish kids. Let them be children. This garbage will only lead to confusion and an increase in suicide.
Single gay men shouldn’t have opinions on what school children are taught
No. It's not science. It's an idea, and it's deeply flawed.
Not OK.
Revolution !
My daughter knew about trans people in primary school, she's kept her fanny lads, calm the fuck down 🙄
Stop interfering with our children!
Paid WEF puppets. No to this trans child abuse. ITS SICK.
This is absolutely absurd . This was a complete non issue and now a tiny number of people has exploded because more gay men have been conditioned to think they’re Trans . Now we have accept it into primary school . Wtf
Childhood and adolescence are confusing enough.
So they’re support a faith based homophobic ideology being pushed on our impressionable children? Madness
The irish had enough of this fool
Does he also want to teach children to get off young boys in gay bars while his husband is at home. The dirtbag
FFS just wait until secondary school..they're 12/13 in secondary. What's the issue
It's hard enough trying to keep your kids straight let alone this nonsense
I DO NOT CONSENT ProtectOurChildren
Yuck
No. No. No. Leave children alone and address such issues at secondary school.
Scum
They can get…..
Is there any end to Leo Varadrakr's evil. Leading young people astray. Woe to he or She that's leading the youth astray. Himself and the taoiseach are for anything that is against the Law of God.
Not having this. No way.
Ireland is in free fall. We need a strong Government who represents the people. This is madness.
With leaders like them, the next generation is doomed.
Let children be children and teenagers be teenagers. School is for proper education, not this ideology nonsense.
Homeschool
Stop the bus I want to get off, educate not sexualise. Enough is enough.
LeoVaradkar the worst sitting Taoiseach since the inception of knobs
TG is a minority within a minority. Its got no place in our primary schools. How do we peacefully stop this from happening?
Nonces back noncing. Surprised lol
Absolutely not. Grooming children is beyond the Pale.
Why are they pushing this harm on children? Why do they want to erode child safeguarding? These are the questions we must be asking them.
🤮👺
Wait till the mammys hear about this 🦄🤮
what is going on in the planet has everyone lost the plot since covid
All I can say is thank God my kids education at this level is complete,
Madness. I don't want this in my kids primary school.
Wow! Bet the country will give them their marching orders come next election! This gov has been the worst for kids since state was founded! They just can't stay out of people's lives!
Headline should read 2 raging homosexuals one of whom can’t go out without wearing the face off of young fellas think it’s perfectly ok to groom children.
This is debauchery, disgusting, trying to poison small childrens minds, it’s a good job there is a opt out clause for parents otherwise the schools are going to be empty, these childless perverts in government trying again to force their idea’s on ordinary families
Absolutely right.
Gender hocus pocus is unscientific +deeply harmful to teenagers+ especially children at whom it is targeted. It is a modern invention. It is a belief system + a new religion. These two buffoons think they are going to pick up brownie points but Irish parents will deal with them.
Taoiseach and Tanaiste have not read the room and instead are giving credence to NGO/lobbyists who represent no-one but their own niche (and in this case damaging) interests. Gender Identity Theory is not fact and is harmful to children.
Freaks.
Taoiseach and Tanaiste should resign.
They are seeing how far they can ram this shit down our throats by gaslighting us and threatening our children.
Its alarming that they want to brainwash children to this Ideology of madness. This needs to kept away from children.
This amounts to child abuse
The 🌈Cult™️🏳️⚧️ was always coming for your kids..
Distraction from Nuremberg trials that awaits this cowardly lot of parasites!
Like 90% of what this government back, majority of Irish oppose. No wonder they gave themselves 24/7 armed protection. Never seen such a small, spiteful group of nasty individuals impose their will against the masses. WEF/EU/NATO globalists devoid of loyalty to sovereign state.
Why can't we let kids enjoy their childhood. Let them be have that much
Ireland= the Homosexual super state. Dont believe me ? Watch what happens on St. Patricks day
Wrong. The people do NOT want this.
🖕
And the school child asks the Taoiseach (on a school visit); can transgender people also be evicted?
'Taoiseach and Tanaiste back inclusion of child-grooming in primary school curriculum' This is state-sponsored child-abuse, and your role in MSM is to hold these perverts to account. Instead, you're complicit. How do you think that's going to end for you?
Sick pervert! I’ll definitely leave a dirt bag like him dictate what my kids will be exposed to! A dirty cretin
Ask the Irish people through a referendum if trans identity and ideology should be taught to children in school?
It's great that Ireland is showing the UK the way on this issue. A progressive minority-respecting country that believes in education - not in keeping children ignorant.
What's right is wrong & what's wrong is right in ''modern'' 🇮🇪no matter where one looks whether it's housing, our health system, economic migrants, attempts to push woke ideology like this crap in schools etc. Absolutely no doubt that🇮🇪as a country is rapidly going down the drain
Síolteagasc
MichealMartinTD & LeoVaradkar again showing their support in the current thing 'devolution of the species'
Keep your fetish out of classrooms pervert!
My friends son is 5, came home last week and announced that he could be a girl if he wants.
that's because they are deviants who work for the wefterrorist group
They can get lost if they think they can brainwash kids into believing that people can change sex. It’s impossible. They need to stay in touch with reality and ditch gender ideology. It just makes them look absolutely stupid. They were borne & birthed by a woman - that’s reality
Many children are going to school hungry and returning to cold homes because of rising prices and they prioritize this nonsense. Two men detached completely from reality, playing a game of distraction with the public.
Why did the Gates Foundation donate so much money in Ireland to push this gender identity crisis on our kids? Oh yeah Bill Gates doesn’t believe in peasants having children. Gender mutilation is on him!!
Children don’t care about gender politics. Only weird, creepy adults do 👍
Put it to a vote. If you’s are that brave. Ask the people !!! Vast majority don’t want this being taught to kids.
Good for him, it’s the basics, teaching facts not that all the transphobes will care
A gay man is Taoiseach, another (childless) one is Minister for Children.
Pure Indoctrination Groomers
The cult of gender ideology which hides under trans removes safeguards and rights from children, women and LGB. It’s homophobic, sexist and misogynistic. There’s no scientific backing and is dangerous.
Taoiseach LeoVaradkar cares more about what the NGO’s & Irish Times think than what FG voters think.
no one cares what those two traitors think
Why does a child need to learn about this madness? Why isn't math and English enough? They are breeding Irish children to grow up and hate themselves so they'll end up like these nutters that's why.
Bad bad move full stop
Of course these puppets will approve anything the NGO cabal will tell them.
Leo
The trans crew really have our boys by the balls. Absolutely brainwashed to the hilt. Needs to be stopped before the idea is even put out there. Preservation of innocence is paramount to a safe future.
Any new up and coming hitler float around ?
The anti psychiatry movement
Let children be children and leave them alone from any ideology
For Fuck Sake
Just madness 🫣
Then Fuck them both.
Not appropriate. Keep out of primary schools. Let them be kids. fiannafailparty no votes from this house.
Statistically, normalising gender woo, then advancing it as an identity, using pronouns, using puberty blockers is a railroad to surgery. Leave the kids alone.
The NGO pressure groups got to them.
Wait 10 years until young adults start suing the living pants off the state for encouraging their physical mutilation as teenagers. Then all this cultural Marxist 'luxury belief' nonsense will come to a crashing halt.
Ffs
Of course T&T back inclusion as there parties sold Ireland off years ago. Primary school is too young to tell them about any truths Hey Leo, leave our kids alone. All in all, your just another prick in the Dail
PARENTS have said NO and we will protect our children from grooming,potential mental illness or cult ideologies that have no foundation in reality,medicine,science or psychology!
Read the room. Majority of parents will never accept this. My children will be excluded from such lessons.
🙈
Ah so they back telling kids they are born in the wrong body? They back tellings kids to bekind to strangers invading their boundaries? They back telling confused kids to mutilate their bodies? And if we don't agree we are 'far right Naxi fascists'?
Our childrens innocence is being robbed from them.
nothankyou 😡
The issue is not that it is being proposed to teach about transgender identity, the issue is that it is being proposed that it be taught as a fact. It is the equivalent of teaching kids that Catholicism is a fact and is the one true religion.
Just stop. Gender non conformity is fine. Cultural expections should not be pushing the ideology that sex can be changed.
Predatory State.
You wouldn't expect anything else from them. Biological reality instead of mental illness is what should be taught.
Leave the damn Kids alone you nonces. Going to have to take a serious look at home schooling if this degenerate shite starts in the schools.
This must be this new “fact based” curriculum they were talking about 🙄
They must absolutely despise us. Nobody wants this except for fringe perverts.
Try it in my kids school and see what happens!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Its now time to take these evil scummy gay peodophiles down they want to teach 6 to 7 years old kids some now needs to be done
Well said LeoVaradkar
The problem is it is being taught as fact, everyone could be 'born in the wrong body' this is a lie and is CAUSING the problem, this social 'soaking' of kids in this concept is CAUSING the explosion of trans identified kids. Stay away from OUR kids LeoVaradkar SimonHarrisTD
Turbocharging the notion of dismorphia in pre-teens is a bad idea. A very bad idea.
Why
It’s not ireland anymore. We’re an eu puppet state
Groomer!
Primary school seems unnecessarily young for this. Who decides what is age appropriate?
primary schools would be overreaching their remit imo.. leave that to the parents and in secondary level in 5/6 year tell them whatever…how about teaching them a foreign language and more life/home skills…
Of course they do 😏 roll out what their EU masters tell them to.
handsoffthechildren
Doesn’t matter. The people have spoken. The people decide, the politicians aren’t there for their opinions. They’re there to represent the will of the voters.
Cult behavior … forced behavior same as covid rules
It’s a sick ideology,and is going to end badly for some people,anyone I hear pushing this on my kids will feel the full force off my wrath.
It's not up to them.
Of course they support it. Children won’t believe the nonsense if they’re not indoctrinated young. Every religion knows you have to start young.
And mehole is a great leader.
Thankfully some push back against catholic doctrines in education.
Another reason not to vote for them
Imagine my fucking shock
Last time I checked it was the people of this country that get the ultimate say.Put it to a referendum & let the people speak on “Open Door Policy” and “Transgender Ideology”. These guys are following an agenda by others & it’s becoming more obvious by the day. protectchildhood
My kids' school better not do this without parents saying so and have you nothing else to try and fix I the County without talking this shit
Once the money is right, you can guarantee they'll be signing up to milk it...
They would, wouldn't they
😡
Leave the children to be children varadkar doesn't know anything better Martin and his wife reared a family plus he was a teacher wouldn't you think he would know better
Well they can't stop parents removing their children from these lessons so let's see what happens
What is the obsession with kids and primary schools ffs 🤔
So glad my youngest is 11. God help parents and children having to deal with this büllshit going forward
This is not an issue for the state to be involved in, in any way. It's a purely private business, that should be left to the discretion of the parents - just like ANY other issue that has to do with beliefs and values, such as religion, for example.
FG absolutely determined to rid itself once and for all of its core vote
What is transgender identity? Until this cult sorts itself out to point we’re they are identified as Transgender person there is no moving forward. For all the will in the world they cannot change sex no matter what surgery they have and cannot rewrite basic biology.
No way! LeoVaradkar no to transgender studies for kids!
Sure don’t we all know Leo likes shifting young boys! He even released his own video of it.
When are they going to ask the parents weather or not they want their children indoctrinated into their cult?
Why would anyone expect the globalist traitors to break ranks now. Their disdain for irelands citizens as demonstrated in their gleeful ignoring of the immigration crisis and now allowing despicable ideological extremism into schools is well known.
Of course. They're degenerates
They don't even have gay identity in primary curriculum?
Having read the article, I’ve come to the conclusion that Varadkar and Martin are unaware of the materials out there. The current plan does not involve teaching about gender identity, it involves indoctrination. It teaches ideology as fact. There should be room for all.
Is this grooming?
Shame on them.
Leave them kids alone…
Death
Yet ANOTHER good reason to vote for the Irish Freedom Party: End the trans indoctrination of children IrexitFreedom
Link doesn’t work for me
Art.42,Sec1:The State acknwldgs that the primary & natural educator of the child is the Family & guarantees to respect the inalienable right and duty of parents to provide, according to their means, for the religious & moral, intellectual, physical & social edu. of their children
VoteThemAllOut
Boys should be shown picture of LeoVaradkar and rodericogorman and told if men like that spproach,to scream loudly and try to get an adult to help.
it's bullshit really is
Demonic
Children in primary schools do not need their heads filled with claptrap nonsense like 'gender identity'. Thankfully parents rights under the constitution are strong and our dear leaders know it.
This is getting out of hand it really is. It's vile and just disgusting to even be thinking of doing this to children. Religion was forced upon us in school and look at the things they did, this will be worse.
LeoVaradkar you are too dangerous to be talking about normal kids. Get back to your nightclub and be sluttish 😂😂😂😂😂😂
No way
Deviants
Fck fcking off, please
One has no kids the other's are all adults. Leave the rest of us and our children alone! tavistock
Not surprising from the pervert who said he was looking forward to seeing kids in their uniforms again when schools reopen from COVID lockdown farce
Of course they do. They haven't an ounce of common sense between them; we all know that.
How can this be acceptable in Primary Schools! Very dangerous individuals rodericogorman LeoVaradkar IMO .... Primary school kids do not need to be thought about Gender Reassignment or Chemically altering your body its ludicrous!Time enough in secondary school when older
Parents stand up and do something for your children before they're all indoctrinated.
No. Not on. Enough is enough.
A guy who has no kids, telling what kids should learn or not hilarious
🚩 🚩
Try getting this madness past the teachers unions LeoVaradkar & rodericogorman you pair of thurndering c**nts
This is not as innocuous as it sounds. Let this slide and in no time you are going to have men in BDSM gear giving school talks about the 'cultural significance of drag' - or some nonsense like that. Any parent that does not actively seek to stop this is a coward.
Newsflash: kids are already talking about it themselves. 9 year old came home and asked what transgender is. I explained it to him, age appropriately, he understood and went back to whatever it was he was doing.
One of the people pushing this agenda. Make up your own minds!!!
If any teacher mentions that shite to my kids... there will be blood.
Filthy perv groomers , the pair off them.
No, keep this out of schools.
nope grooming is not necessary in schools
Stay out of the classroom.
How does spreading lies about biology benefit children?
Why are our government seeking to sexualise young children?
Not until after age 16 please.
My kids will not be subjected to this cult ideology
THIS IS BONKERS!! Flat earthers, NeoNazis, and Qanon exist too. Should they all be included in our primary school curriculum Is ‘existence’ the only qualification for what we teach kids LeoVaradkar MichealMartinTD ProtectOurChildren TransAgenda
At what stage do we say stop enough is enough , this is nothing more than a recruitment process...... Leave children be children ....... This country is fast becoming a lunatic asylum..... It's sick to think that this could even be considered for primary schools
Groomers in Government.
With a bit of luck this will be the straw that broke the camels back and bring down this government.. .people are absolutely sick of their looney toons policies....
Ireland be better of back in the union with Britan
Pathetic. Will religious schools be forced to teach this nonsense too?
No proper parent would agree to this pervert reasoning of these perverted individuals
Insanity! Poor Ireland🥲
Not surprising. Far left government
What strange times we Iive in...of course Bill and Ben here would have to row in behind this woke nonsense...its actually a bit sick really
Of course it should not be excluded. It needs very careful consideration when constructing the module to be taught.
To be expected. Moral deviancy begets moral deviancy.
Well the schools and majority of parents don’t want it. Listen to the people and stop promoting your own agendas. MichealMartinTD LeoVaradkar
degenerates
Well the parents dont. When he has his own kids he can have a say . Same with that O'Gorman. No one elected ye in to office.
Loose lips leo...
Will Islamic parents be happy I wonder! 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Absolutely outrageous. But hardly a surprise coming from this man
Have they seen what happened in Scotland two weeks ago? LeoVaradkar SimonHarrisTD
Mind your own business, parents can teach them these things if they wish
I certainly dont
