Live breaking news: Push to stop using 'mum' and 'dad' in schools, Prince Harry lands in London, Trump explodes in rant
Schools in Victoria will be told to avoid terms like “mum”, “dad”, “boyfriend” and “girlfriend” as part of a push to become more inclusive.
Schools and sporting groups in Victoria will be told to avoid terms like “mum”, “dad”, “boyfriend” and “girlfriend” as part of a push to curb the dropout and suicide rates of LGBTQI+ young people.
The North Western Melbourne Primary Health Network has set up the #SpeakingUpSpeaksVolumes campaign which will bring in unisex bathrooms, non-gendered playing teams and rainbow flags in a bid to be more inclusive.
The Herald Sun reports that the material suggests avoiding “gendered terms” such as husband and girlfriend instead of the non-gendered partner, and mum and dad rather than parent. Students are also encouraged to ask others which pronouns they use.

The cognoscenti here at HC will recall the ridiculous statements on behalf of the gay community leading up to the vote on same sex marriage. We were warned that if we had an open, honest and frank debate we would end up with bodies littering the suburbs as members of the gay community would be driven to suicide given their fragile condition. As we know that didn't happen. If these social engineers removed the emotion from their arguments people might at least listen to them.
