Role Of Teachers To Teach Not Transition Children

Posted on Blog by Kieren Jackson · September 05, 2018 4:12 PM

The Australian Christian Lobby is gravely concerned by revelations in the Daily Telegraph today that New South Wales teachers are being taught how to identify gender confused children and to support them through the transition process.   

“Of the one per cent of children who suffer from gender dysphoria over 80 per cent resolve to their natal sex during puberty. We cannot expect teachers, with no medical or psychological training to identify the 0.2 per cent of children that this will remain an issue for,” said Kieren Jackson, ACL’s state director.  

“As highlighted by Dr Whitehall, the transgender agenda is incredibly harmful to children and their physical and mental development, particularly when they begin taking puberty blockers and hormones.”  

“Considering we are facing a national epidemic with 42 per cent of 15-year old's failing to meet minimum national standards in maths and literacy, teachers should be more concerned about teaching children than transitioning them.”  

“Today I will be writing to the Education Minister Rob Stokes to raise this issue with him and urge him to consider more stringent management of educational courses for teachers which can negatively impact the wellbeing of children,” commented Mr Jackson.

Bill to provide surrogacy access for men

Posted on Blog by Peter Abetz · August 28, 2018 2:08 PM

A bill to allow altruistic surrogacy access for male same-sex couples and single men will deliberately remove the rights of children to know their biological parents.  

The Australian Christian Lobby is concerned that this will only serve to commodify children and further exploit women.

ACL Congratulates PM Elect Morrison

Posted on Blog by Martyn Iles · August 24, 2018 1:56 PM

The Australian Christian Lobby today extended congratulations to Prime Minister elect Scott Morrison. 

Martyn Iles, ACL’s managing director said, “We look forward to continuing our constructive conversation with the government on religious freedom.” 

“It’s now been over three months since the Ruddock Review was released. Religious freedom must be a priority for the Morrison ministry in light of increasing numbers of Australians who are getting in trouble with the law for living out their faith.” 

“ACL also urges the government to follow it's commendable legacy of securing Australia's borders with a solution to the humanitarian crisis on Nauru and Manus Island, where hundreds of asylum seekers have languished for five years.” 

Mr Iles said that ACL trusts Mr Morrison will demonstrate the strong leadership required for a new era of political stability.
