The parents of the 21st century come into the world with a shopping list: nutrition for their children, trendy clothes, supply of the latest generation mobile phones, English classes with a 21-day summer course among natives, transfer to after-school points, Pick up at the exit of the discos (flexible hours) and whatever facilitates the happiness of the creatures and not of Palito Ortega until the age of 45, approximately.

And as a tribute to parents, the Government of the Kingdom of Spain recognizes minors the “right to sexual self-determination”, which confirms their vision, apparently progressive, of paternity: pay and shut up.

The wonderful thing about these eggplants – which can cost Sánchez the elections – is the distrust they transmit about the paternal ability to give the best – advice included – to their children.

I already understand that there are parents who raise their elbows, fry frozen dumplings and scratch themselves on the sofa shouting “Hala Madrid!” or “Visca el Barça!”. Even so, there are few who do not fight for the good of their children.

Of course, the trans law has introduced, collaterally, modifications in the Civil Code that suppress the “fathers”, “mothers” or “father” to dry. Thus, what we simply called the father is now defined as “non-pregnant father or parent”.

Are you the non-pregnant parent of Angelito Folledo? We beg you to go to school and stop the fight: the teacher has kissed the canvas three times.

Parents are usually a competent authority, who from time to time impose and without offering alternatives. But from there to legislate that they do not paint anything in relevant decisions…

I believe that if minors have the right to self-determination, today regarding sex, tomorrow regarding school attendance, the Government should exempt parents from some cumbersome obligations and grant them the right to self-determination – it doesn’t have to be sexual – even if only in August.

–The pregnant parent and the non-pregnant parent go to Greece for a month. There are provisions in the fridge. Be happy!
