David Quinn was interviewed by George Hook last Tuesday on Newstalk about plans by the UK government to put ‘Parent A’ and ‘Parent B’ on passport forms. David explains how this is part of a much wider assault on the special value of motherhood and fatherhood.

David points out that in the UK, Canada and other countries, two men or two women can now be named on a birth certificate as the parents of a child even though this is a biological impossibility.

He explains how measures like this are putting the desires and feelings of adults ahead of the rights of children and are reducing the significance of biological parenthood and therefore of mothers and fathers.

Motherhood and fatherhood are being replaced by gender-neutral ‘parenthood’.
