” “In Spain, several educational and family associations are getting ready to challenge the new school subject-matter called "Education to citizenship", because in their opinion it is an attempted "brainwashing" by the government. This subject-matter is said to show to children the new types of families that are adding to the "two-parent" ones, i.e. single-parent and so-called gay families. The associations have prepared a guidebook to explain to parents the contents of this new subject-matter established by the Organic Education Act (Loe). The digital platform Hazte Oir, which is leading the protest, insists that this subject-matter reveals "the government’s intention to instil moral values decided by the politicians on duty". Ramón Novella, one of the supporters of the initiative, highlights it is urgent "to provide detailed explanations to parents about the consequences of this decision, which will end up teaching students ideological notions opposed to the values that they are taught by their parents". Novella informs that the Catholic associations will do "conscientious objection" to this subject-matter, which is expected to come into force in the next school year.” “
