Our findings show extensive sexualization of children and adolescents in Norwegian schools and health services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Over the past 5\u201310 years, there has been a quiet but profound change in how children and youth in Norway are taught about sexuality, gender and identity. Through collaboration between government agencies, the education system and ideologically driven NGOs, Norwegian children today are exposed to a radically new view of sexuality and gender \u2013 right down to kindergarten.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We at the Christian Resource Center have analyzed dozens of official documents, curricula, teaching plans, method books and UN-affiliated guides. What emerges is a so-called \u201crights-based and ideological sexual policy\u201d, where the child is no longer an innocent and vulnerable individual \u2013 but is instead understood as a sexual being with a need to explore, understand and express their sexuality from an early age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Why? The goal is \u201cgood sexual health and sexual relationships\u201d in adulthood, and the concept of \u201cpositive sexuality\u201d has been introduced as an almost irrefutable tool. Anything that does not support this new view of gender and sexuality is thus understood as \u201cnegative sexuality\u201d, for example biblical or conservative sexual morality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is not said out loud, but in documents from The Directorate of Health, Bufdir, Sex and Politics, Sex and Society, UNESCO\/UN and IPPF<\/strong> It is clear: Children have sexuality, children should learn about sexual pleasure, and children should know their own sexual rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Key findings in the report:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25cf Children aged 4-6 should learn that gender identity is something that one decides for themselves \u2013 regardless of body and biological sex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25cf Elementary school-age children are taught that love and cuddling "sometimes include sexual acts.".<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25cf Masturbation is presented as normal and healthy \u2013 already from the age of 4-6.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25cf The teaching promotes the idea that \u201conly you know what is right for you\u201d \u2013 also in matters of sexuality and intimate relationships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25cf Christian (and other religious) or moral views on sexuality are almost absent \u2013 or are portrayed as obstacles to children's sexual health and rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The changes occur mainly through three channels:<\/p>\n\n\n\n 1. The National Education Agency<\/strong>, which after the Knowledge Promotion 2020 introduced sexuality and identity as part of an interdisciplinary theme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 2. School health services and public health nurses<\/strong>, who are educated in line with the new thinking around positive sexuality and sexual health and rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 3. NGOs like Sex and Politics<\/strong>, which has gained significant influence and is behind the popular program Week 6 \u2013 used in over half of Norwegian primary schools. And Sex and Society, which is behind college and vocational education with its speakers and eMethodbook for sexual health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sex and Politics is a Norwegian partner organization for International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF)<\/strong> \u2013 one of the world's most radical promoters of comprehensive sexuality education (CSE). What they call "knowledge-based education" is in practice strongly colored by an ideological and sex-positive understanding of the child as sexual. IPPF's business model is the sale of contraception, they are the world's largest supplier of abortion and sex-correcting hormones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Norwegian people are rarely informed about what is actually taught in Norwegian classrooms. Parents are often unaware of how radical this is \u2013 both in terms of gender, identity, sexual practices and views on morality. The teaching appears professional and safe, but in reality bears the hallmarks of:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25cf Criticism of norms that conflict with Christian values<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25cf Degradation of parental rights<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25cf Training in self-defined identity and sexual freedom<\/p>\n\n\n\n This represents a dramatic break with the classical Christian understanding of sexuality and childhood<\/strong> \u2013 and is happening today with full government support and political consensus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But in no way does this view find support in the idea that children and young people should follow their feelings as a basis for deciding their own life choices, without this practice increasing the risk of undesirable consequences. The numbers speak clearly to the contrary, that the consequences lead to generations with a lower ability to enter into lasting and close relationships with a dramatic increase in mental illness and substance abuse, and a country that ranks among the world's top sexually transmitted diseases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is just the tip of the iceberg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Watch our video podcast: \u201cSystematic sexualization of Norwegian children by state, school and NGOs\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n In our latest video podcast, Truls Olufsen-Mehus goes into depth on this development, with documented sources, excerpts from teaching programs and a review of how the UN and NGOs shape Norwegian sexual policy - targeted at our children and youth.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSchools and healthcare preach the new view<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
