“WE, PROUD OF A MINISTER FRIEND, WHO DOES NOT SEEK THE APPLAUSE OF THE WORLD, BUT HE WANTS TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE COMMON GOOD, ACCORDING TO CATHOLIC DOCTRINE” (Matthew Castagna, National Manager of the Christus Rex Club).
The Minister of Family Affairs also announced news on foster care. Salvini: “We will defend the child's right to have a mother and a father”. Vendola: “No one will be able to erase our children”. And Hanger: “We will continue to record them”
ROMA – Stop the recognition of children of same-sex couples born abroad thanks to practices prohibited in Italy such as surrogacy. The Minister of Family Affairs underlined this Lorenzo Fontana, heard by the Social Affairs Commission of the Chamber on the programmatic lines of its ministry: “I note that the current structure of family law cannot fail to take into account what has been happening in recent months regarding the recognition of parenthood, for the purposes of registering the civil status of children conceived abroad by same-sex couples using practices prohibited by our law and which should remain so”, said the minister, that already on the day of the swearing-in of the Conte government he had dismissed the issue of the children of same-sex couples by stating that in his opinion rainbow families “they don't exist”.
Fontana also announced news in Parliament “on the regulation of family custody: prenuptial agreements to reduce economic conflicts during the dissolution of the relationship, with advantages for minors who will not be held hostage by one parent or the other”. The minister explained in the Commission hearing “that the choices previously made by the parents must correspond to the needs of the minors involved”. Then it is necessary “evaluate the introduction of measures to combat parental alienation, when a child unmotivatedly rejects the relationship with one of the parents. Adequate tools to combat such practices are needed”.
Children of gay couples, Fontana: ”No to surrogacy, stop with the accolades”

Cirinnà and Vendola: in Italy nothing has changed
The Democratic senator is not there Monica Cirinnà: “Salvini knows very well that the government cannot intervene, through the prefects, on civil status documents. What Salvini and Fontana persist in ignoring is that jurisprudence has already recognized the full legitimacy of birth certificates with two fathers and two mothers, and that the interest of the minor prevails over the legitimacy of the techniques with which he came into the world”. So, conclude Cirinnà, “despite the propaganda, nothing has changed in Italy and the courts will continue, as it should be, to recognize parenthood for same-sex couples”.
The replica of. is also ready Nichi Vendola: “Foreigners, i rom, i gay: they are the first scalps to be exhibited in this flashback of racism, which is cleared through customs with the government in office, indeed claimed”. Fontana's words for the former governor of Puglia “they are the result of ignorance and intolerance. Unfortunately for him, no one will be able to erase our families and our children”.
Hanger: we move forward
Arcigay arises (“Just propaganda”), while the Democratic Party with Senator Mauro Marino is ironic: “The Hanger it is now outlawed”. But the mayor of Turin reiterates: “We are proud to have been the first Italian city to recognize the right of children of same-parent couples to have both parents”, announcing that the Municipality will continue to register them.
Spadafora: “Just propaganda”
And on the M5S front, a stop to the Northern League line comes from within the ranks of the government Vincenzo Spadafora: “I invite Minister Fontana – says the five-star undersecretary to the Presidency of the Council, with responsibility for young people and equal opportunities – to stop the propaganda and open a culturally serious dialogue, to prevent our country from going back ten years, also contravening the indications of the Constitutional Court”.
