GERMANIA: CONDANNATI 35 GENITORI PERCHÉ CONTRARI ALL'EDUCAZIONE SESSUALE - Associazioni di 9 Paesi e 4 continenti difendono i diritti dei genitori
MADRID / BERLIN, Tuesday, March 8, 2011 (ZENIT.org) .- The last case by the media and that of a German mother in jail for his failure to attend to their children about sex education in primary schools state.
Since 2006, in Germany there are 35 cases of parents convicted for the same reason. Many organizations defending the right of parents to choose the education of their children in a very sensitive question.
in recent days has been released on the case of Irene Wiens, Salzkotten, sentenced to 43 days in jail for refusing to assist their children to sex education in primary schools.
According to a press release sent to ZENIT by Ignacio Pascual, of the "Profesionales por la Ética," "the legal defense of this incredible issue, already reached the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg, is managed by Alliance Defense Fund (ADF), an entity within supranational expert in protection of freedom of religion and conscience. "
As explained by the ADF attorney, Roger Kiska, "are parents, not the government, ultimately responsible for the education of children. Incarceration of parents to exercise the rights universally accepted is unthinkable. "
"The Wiens family their rights based on the European Convention on Human Rights, which defends the right of parents to send their children to the vision of sexuality in accordance with their own convictions."
"E 'therefore perfectly legal for parents to decide not to attend to their children the lessons and activities provided by education state," he added. "Irene Wiens has been in jail for aver difeso i suoi quattri figli (tra i 10 e i 16 anni) da un'educazione sessuale interattiva che non coincide con la sua visione della sessualità”.
“Il caso della famiglia Wiens non è purtroppo il primo”, spiega la nota di “Profesionales por la Ética”. “Risulta sorprendente che dal 2006 ADF abbia contato in Germania 35 casi di genitori condannati per non aver fatto partecipare i propri figli a questo tipo di attività statali che si introducono pienamente nella morale e nelle credenze dei genitori e coinvolgono i bambini”. Le condanne includono multe (tra i 200 e i 1.200 euro) e/o carcere (da alcuni giorni a un mese e mezzo).
Di fronte a questi casi, “Profesionales por la Ética” – associazione che collabora strettamente con ADF nella difesa dei diritti dei genitori europei – ha diffuso una dichiarazione per il riconoscimento dei diritti dei genitori di educare i figli in base alle proprie convinzioni.
Il documento definisce “inaccettabile” la repressione subita da questa madre tedesca e ricorda che la Dichiarazione Universale dei Diritti dell'Uomo, il Patto per la Difesa dei Diritti Umani e delle Libertà Fondamentali e la Lettera dei Diritti Fondamentali dell'UE, così come il Patto International Civil and Political Rights, guaranteeing the right of parents to educate their children according to their beliefs.
to this statement are joining thousands of anonymous citizens. The text was also signed by associations of nine countries and four continents: Europe, Africa, Asia and America.
"This statement - said Leonor Tamayo, in charge of International" Profesionales por la Ética "- will be sent to the German federal government and the governments of the various German states, the rest of the governments of EU countries and European institutions in rights and fundamental freedoms. "
"Freedom of education - he added - is dramatically wounded in Europe." "Once again, it is the civil society must speak out and denounce the abuses of power, the indifference and complicity of governments and the lack of protection of citizens, and demand respect for fundamental rights."
