Sex education lessons will be allowed for children only upon receiving the consent of parents – Chairperson of the Human Rights and Civil Integration Committee Sophio Kiladze, said while speaking about “Code on Children’s Rights.”

According to Kiladze, questions about the anti-nationality of this Code should not be raised. “Sex education lessons will be allowed only with the consent of parents. Also, if a family requires, the Orthodox Church and other confessions will have the right to be engaged and consult regarding any particular issue at the request of a specific family. I just want to ask the society – can it be anti-national? – Of course not. Here are some specific guarantees that need our country, which are necessary to strengthen families, the well-being of our children,” Kiladze said.

The Chairperson of the Human Rights and Civil Integration Committee expressed her readiness to consult with any person at the committee sitting in order to avoid questions regarding anti-nationality of this code.
