For the past decade, on a day in August, Australians have been encouraged to ‘Wear It Purple’. In particular our school students are targeted with this campaign, with schools right across our nation enthusiastically promoting the event. All areas of employment are getting on board, including our police force. Promoted as a day in which to ‘celebrate diversity and young people from the LGBTIQA+ community’, a darker, very alarming, side has emerged.

In encouraging news for parents, a complaint by parent ‘Anne’ about the gender-fluidity resource ‘The Genderbread Person’ has resulted in the resource being withdrawn from a NSW public high school.

The innocence of children is precious and sacred, something that good government should preserve. Parental responsibility remains the most important authority in a child’s life. The Australian Christian Lobby holds that governments should help - not hinder - that parental authority by protecting children.
