Berlin’s first LGBTQ kindergarten may open next year

If all goes well, Berlin’s first gay-lesbian kindergarten will open its doors in 2023, which will be part of an LGBTQ counseling center. According to the operator, parents have already registered sixty children, but there are still 33 places.

Most of the children come from families in the neighborhood (Schöneberg district), most of them are raised by same-sex couples, writes the Bild.

The Austrian Kronen Zeitung in his related article he emphasizes:

children admitted to the institution are not expected to know about themselves which gender they are attracted to.

According to the organizers, if the children later find out that they are not heterosexual, it will be much easier for them to fit in thanks to this kindergarten education.

Although the reception of the LGBTQ counseling center is apparently positive, the operating organization is far from free of scandals. Among others, one of the vanguards of pedophile rights sits on the board, Rudiger Lautmanndraw attention to the Sunday.hu.

The 86-year-old man published a book in 1998 The desire for a child, the portrait of a pedophile (Die Lust am Kind. Portrait des Pädophilen), in which he tries to explain the behavior of pedophiles.
