“The children deserve the best “? Yeah by being discriminated against,by being left out,by seeing his /her parents tear apart??! What a world that we live in!

I can't think of anything more anti-family than threatening to imprison parents for becoming parents.

And this is why Seperation of church and state is soooo important. Religion (Abrahamic ones) have never been good for the society

If only these politicians would put half the commitment they put in judging people's sexual choices into fixing the problems of the country, Italy would become a paradise

Worse than pedos?! Is this just a really bad joke like what is going though his head.

If only love was as contiguous as hate

"We want a healthy environment for children to grow up in"... jails two loving parents, how does that work. Millions of children grow up with abusive mothers and fathers, where is the concern there? What happened to grow and multiply? Europe has a declining population if two loving people are willing to expand their love by welcoming a new person into their life, what is the issue?

It would be really nice to hear the phrase “influence of the Catholic Church” in conjunction with something positive for once. I’m no expert, but I honestly don’t think Jesus would be impressed- and I mean that with respect.

The Italian prime minister is a nightmare! I think kids need nice and loving parents that's all

Christians be like: "Love your neighbor...and take away their kids!!". barbaric and disgraceful

First they came for the LGBT community, And I immediately spoke out because I know how the original version of this poem ends.

The Italian prime minister is a nightmare! I think kids need nice and loving parents that's all, it doesn't matter if they are straight or gay.

I hope that, if these families must leave the country, they do it soon enough. History shows us tragedy’s occurred to those who stayed a bit too long.

Shouldn't they celebrate anyone wanting to raise kids in Italy to slow down the population decline?

The lawmakers are also parents too. And they should think twice before implementing the laws. They dont know what people are going through or other families are going through. Please stop this selfish act. Where is love where is kindness where is humanity. Are lawmakers perefect no they are not . We are only just imperfect human beings we make mistakes but this is too much. Hope justice is served for the people who are going through though times. Dont worry because every little thing is gonna be alright.

Absolutely deplorable actions from the italian government

I am a gay Italian and I want gay Italian boys to have freedom in Italy to be gay.

This is where the church shouldn't inference the government.

Living in Italy I can only say that the atmosphere changed since this horrible Meloni took over. The driving got more agressive, a sick masculinity is shown everywhere. Not my Italy anymore.

I feel so sad for these families and also so proud that at the beginning of next month, we are legalizing same-sex marriages in Greece.

Fun that prostitution is accepted, but surrogacy and adopting children is illegal.

Just wrong!!

I think it's time we stop letting others decide our rights. We are Gay, we are still MEN. You can decide what I can or can't do over my dead body, and lemme tell ya, I'm not planning to die for a very long time, and will fight like hell before then. I say it's time we gays stand up and fight. Mobilize, and push back. Walk up into the offices of power, and don't denand better from someone in charge, BE the person in charge, and make the changes. Run for office, run for local and community leadership positions, homophobia is a disease we must wipe out, and to do so we'll have to essentially be soldiers

" we are coming after your kids ." If u speak about fear on babys then you should know that you are the Danger

Love is love, but selling and buying babies is not. Morally way worse than prostitution, since it affects the most innocent

Meloni is simply prepping Italian society for its impending Muslim-majority demographic shift. Why would anyone not want Italy made most accommodating for muslims? A: islamophobia 😌

Except Mousolini who attacked Greece, Morozini who bombarded the Parthenon, crusaders destroyed Constantinople in 1204 and took all the gold, recognized the independence of Albania, gave guns to Kemal Ataturk. Wow Italy you are so friendly it's impossible for me to breathe. hahahaha

This is heartbreaking and infuriating. I hope change comes in 2027

So sad for all these gay couples with children of their own. I hope theyccan live peacefully and freely.

People those days thinks so selfishly without knowing what could happen to those children and how the way they grow in can effect them

Maybe in Italy, gays and lesbians should raise families together giving the illusion of being a straight family in the eyes of the Italia government

At the very end "becoming a father without not exploiting anybody" Logic thrown away with a baby rights.

Lets make sure every kid has at least SOMEONE before arguing about who shouldnt.

She's anti everything. What a fabulous fascist ❤

Never got the “hate what another human does when it comes to their sexual orientation” memo. Makes utterly no sense. I tend to dislike people for their ideas, their beliefs, their opinions, their dress-sense, and not something over which they have utterly no say or control. It’s like dissing people with different skin colour. Pointless. Not only pointless, but totally stupid and moronic, as no one chooses their skin colour, just as no one chooses their sexuality. But here’s the clincher for me: even if we *did* choose our skin colour and sexuality, it still wouldn’t bother me one iota that some random has a different skin colour or sexuality. The sooner we can move beyond this primitive nonsense as a species, the better. To me, being homophobic is a bit like feeling resentful of someone digging Uranus because you’re not an astronomer! 🔭

The leeches in the comments are just pathetic. They better stay in their parents' basements where they belong. Anyway I didn't know it was this big, I heard they were trying to make it illegal but only in Italy. They barely talk about it on TV over here and not even this detailed either.

That’s unbelievable!! 😮‍💨

This is an outrage.

Italy has a big natality problem and still barks when they see a new born lol.

Italy is a very religious country so they’re not really open to these topics.

Horrible...

I am Italian and part of the community and find surrogacy disgusting as it exists in certain countries, it has become a business and should only ideally exist as a free volunteer action. However I want gay adoption to be legalized, in fact all adoption should be easier as it is nearly impossible in Italy for many straight families to adopt as well

Is Giorgia Meloni such a paragon of virtue? Is her own personal life impeccable? The measures taken by the Italian government against innocent gay people smacks of hypocrisy.

It's imperative that children are protected for child abuse, being Intentionally deprived from a mother and father is child abuse in my opinion.

"How difficult was it for you to be parents as a gay couple?" "Very difficult" You been trying for weeks huh?

I had no idea Italy was this far behind in modern society. The Prime Minister sounds like a capitol "B".

Disgusting

Lots of prayers for the LGBTQ community to fight for more love and compassion in the world! May you have success in fighting these small minded and conservative politicians on this point.

As a third generation Italian American and a happily married gay man, it makes me sad that I would be looked down upon and my marriage dismissed if I visited my grandparents' homeland. I'm even sadder for LGBTQ Italians who only desire the basic human right of having a family. I hope that those who are forcing their antiquated fear-born beliefs on others will find the love in their hearts to live and let live. Even the Pope is now taking a loving and welcoming stance towards LGBTQ people and honoring them as natural important members of the fabric of humanity, although he needs to stop splitting hairs by calling homosexuality natural but still a sin. If we can love you, you can come to love us.

The entire family us gay? The kids and everything? How does that work?

Good Italy! Stand strong against woke!

Right wing government lol

I'm happy to be half italian

This will include straight couples too.

Children need a mother and father, not 2 mothers or 2 fathers. LGBT must not adopt children as if they were pets. A child cannot chose their family. Natyraly is conceived from egg and sperm, so you cannot force a child to grow up on same sex couples. I don't belive in religion but in the God of universe, who created all human beings.

Oh the upside, major investment opportunity. Shorting the Italian market is a guaranteed money maker. Going after the gays makes no sense from any practical standpoint, however they are an excellent scapegoat if things aren't going well & there are no plans to turn things around

How is Spain amd Italy so much different views about lgbti?

Great job Italy. Wish more countries would do this.

A child should have a father and a mother. How it was intended. Unfortunately gay people are only thinking about themselves!

Love is love . We are all people . We should all be EQUAL ❤❤xxx

I wish i could say im suprised, but i'm not because of the catholic church

children should have a mother and a father , not gay or lebian parents, with what moraliry do they grow up

Sorry people, kids are not items to be commissioned and sold, and women are not your pay-per incubators you can purchase! Proud of my country for doing this 😍😍

Of course these families are fake. As someone who grew up without father I always wanted to have at least step father with my sister, NOT ANOTHER Mother. .... When my step father died my world as a child broke down. ..... I am atheist but have to agree with religions on this one.

The BBC really knows how to cover the real pressing problems of today. Italy got 99 problems for sure and this ain’t one

If the lgbt people of the earth were given a piece of land to settle in without anyone interfering with them, would they had wanted that? Would women want to live there and be surrogotes for them? If your existence is dependent on people who get married and have children, then how did you expect to pass one generation of existence without coming to the conclusion that your lifestyle is against human existence?

Children deserves the best! Both father and the mother. This is soo unnatural!

Forcing people to accept that LGBT is the norm is not better. Why aren't they talking about this?

BBC propaganda

Creepy

Sin destroys the nation

Let's switch! Come to Canada!

I heard he lives in a castle 🏰 but that's just what I heard

No place for groomers in our societies

“Their chance of having a family destroyed”. How about the chance of women of not having their bodies used as incubators, and the chance of children not to be bought and torn from their mother at birth? Brava Italia !

Warum faucht meine katzt weil sie beschatten italy

They need the second amendment

Italy is democracy, let them make their own laws!

They do NOT DESERVE to be called "families" as they are NOT!!!!!!!!

orgoglioso della mia Italia

Against Nature, against Law

Seems the current govt in Italy, has turned the clock back about 600 years (or wants to!!), sadly most countries where the 'official' religion is Catholic or other extremes, dominate and control laws & minds to the same end. My own country of origin as part of the Balkans has been Catholic dominated for hundreds and years, and still is - 'church and state' commented with regular ease. My blood family (I was adopted and am also Gay) come from a very small peasant village in the Dinaric Alps, there is no-one in Village even today who is 'not family' in some way. Since the plague passed through the area c1420 my family have actively practised 'incest', and with the known support of the Catholic Church (the worst paedophile supporters & practitioners in the world, even today), so it is VERY easy to see the current Italian Govt peddling the same old Catholic agenda here. Not quite as bad as many other countries and also USA these days, where they actually shoot LGBT+ folk and supporters. Kia Ora from New Zealand. 💜💜

✝️🇮🇹

Cancel your television license everyone there is videos on KZfaq telling you how

As a Pakistani I fully support love and respect Georgia meloni on this issue

Congratulations to Brooke Bruk-Jackson, crowned Miss Universe Zimbabwe 2023🥰

Ma perche le coppie lgbtq non adottano figli invece di fare queste robe come utero in affitto? Comunque un figlio cresce meglio con mamma e papà

The house song is old stuff tho BBC

How can i enter Paradise ? “Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved"

I grew up with gay people around me, never had a problem with them, then they decided to bring along all the other weirdos and the demands they made just kept on getting more and more outlandish, “” When tyranny becomes law rebellion becomes a duty””

Slava Italy..

0:48 are those two women in pink shirts twins??

I think you mean gay couples, not gay families.

Our daughters, and all of our children and their descendants need to be able to grow up in a country which is safe, homogeneous, and high-trust. A country in which we, the peoples of Britain, dictate our own affairs and our own destiny, rather than traitors and parasites who serve megalomaniacal foreign psychopaths who despise us. And above all, a country which simply feels like home. A country which is genuinely ours, as it ought to be.

Still don't mean it's right, they will answer to the Lord Like the rest of us God created Adam and Eve Not Adam and Steve

Around the corner Jesus is coming.....r u ready.....Christ is the way, stop this thing

Its a law against LBGT not Against gay itself!

you are being presented this as part of bbc political and social ideology platform

Just know God created Adam and Eve not Adam and Steve I agree with Italy

Acts 1:8 ye shall receive POWER, after that the Holy Ghost is in you.
