Amoris Laetitia ("The Joy of Love"), Pope Francis asserts that
children and
adolescents "need to be helped to accept their own body as it was created."
He also asserts that sex education should "provide information while keeping in mind that children and young people have not yet attained full maturity" because
it is "
always irresponsible to invite adolescents to toy with their bodies and their desires, as if they possessed the maturity, values, mutual commitment and goals proper to marriage."
Last month, the College issued the position statement, "
Gender Ideology Harms Children" and received both positive and negative feedback. The position statement "urges educators and legislators to
reject all policies that condition children to accept as normal a life of chemical and surgical impersonation of the opposite sex. Facts - not ideology - determine reality."
Consider sharing
this Breitbart article to your social media pages and tagging the College under the headline, "The Pope and ACPeds agree: teach children self-acceptance, self-respect and self-appreciation and to embrace the body one is born with"
