For a national broadcaster, these relationships raised obvious concerns from the outset, and they should not have been allowed to continue for as long as they did.  The ABC was paying to be part of organisations that also assessed and ranked it, in some cases linking that to its editorial output. This is a clear conflict and not acceptable for a publicly funded broadcaster.

The mother of a girl who tried to become a boy told me that the doctor said to her when she opposed the treatment, ‘Would you rather a dead daughter or a live son?’ Parents across Australia have been told the same thing when sharing their concerns regarding their child’s desired gender treatment. They have been manipulated into believing that they have no real choice.

We’re often told that concerns about gender ideology in schools come from a small minority of parents. The data tells a very different story. We recently commissioned research surveying 1,500 Victorians, and the results are clear. A majority of parents are not comfortable with the direction of gender-related teaching in schools.
