Abortion and child support – does a woman’s decision release a man from responsibility?

In the case of a serious illness of the unborn child, when the law allows for termination of pregnancy but the woman decides to give birth despite the man's objection, should he be obliged to pay child support?

Abortion and child support is a topic that stirs emotions and exposes moral tensions between law and private choices. When a woman decides to give birth to a severely ill child despite the legal possibility of abortion, the question arises: should the man who opposed this decision pay child support? Supporters of the obligation emphasize the father’s biological responsibility, while opponents see it as imposing a role he did not want. Society is therefore faced with a dilemma: is the child’s right to life more important than the right to renounce fatherhood? There are also theories that child support is a tool for depopulating society. And you – do you think that a woman’s choice should bind a man for years?

Food in the EU – double quality standards?

Do you think that food sold in Eastern Europe is of lower quality than that in Western Europe, despite identical branding and packaging?

The issue of double quality standards in food within the European Union has been stirring emotions for years. Many consumers from Eastern Europe believe that under the same brands and in almost identical packaging, they are sold lower-quality products compared to Western countries – butter replaced with palm oil, less fruit and more glucose syrup in juices. Brussels has repeatedly promised to fight this practice, but inspection results have often been surprisingly inconclusive. Some claim it is economic discrimination, others – just the adjustment of recipes to local tastes. But is it really only about taste, or rather about cynically exploiting less affluent societies?

Open relationships – experiment or recipe for breakup?

Have you ever been in an open relationship and do you support this model of partnership?

Open relationships have long sparked both fascination and aversion. Some see them as proof of courage and emotional maturity, others as debauchery. Supporters emphasize that monogamy is a cultural construct, and that humans were not naturally created to live with only one person. Critics counter that such arrangements blur the lines of loyalty and destroy the foundation of trust. Psychologists warn that open relationships carry the risk of jealousy and emotional inequality, while conspiracy theories even claim they are deliberately promoted as a tool to weaken family bonds. Is an open relationship the future of intimacy, or an experiment that ends faster than it begins? Vote and find out!

Spanking as a method of upbringing?

Do you support the idea that a parent should be allowed to spank a child as a form of discipline?

Spanking as an educational method has sparked debates in Poland and around the world for years. Some argue that a symbolic spanking is an effective, traditional form of discipline, and that banning it is an attack on parental rights and an attempt by the state to take over child-rearing. Others respond that it is nothing more than physical violence against a child, just given a softer name. Supporters of a moderate approach add that spanking can be a last resort when all else fails, but even that provokes opposition from child rights advocates and psychologists. The dispute is fueled by evidence of the long-term effects of violence as well as conspiracy theories suggesting that spanking bans are part of a plan to weaken the family as an institution. And you – do you believe spanking is a normal parenting tool, or rather a hidden form of violence?

Religion and ethics in schools – compulsory, voluntary, or completely outside school?

What do you think the status of religion and ethics in schools should be?

Religion and ethics in schools have long been a source of heated disputes. Supporters of compulsory classes argue that morality and spiritual values should be the foundation of education, and that without them young people easily fall into nihilism and consumerism. Opponents see it as an attempt to impose ideology and restrict worldview freedom – they point out that Poland still pays the price for the privileged position of the Church. Part of society demands neutral ethics instead of religion, others would like to completely remove both subjects and move moral upbringing to families and communities. Or perhaps schools should simply remain free from such disputes? Cast your vote in the poll!

Health Education in Schools – Necessary or Harmful?

Do you think health education should be mandatory in schools?

Health education in schools is one of the most divisive elements of the curriculum. Some believe that children and teenagers have the right to reliable knowledge about health, puberty, sexuality, and the existence of many gender identities, so they can consciously protect themselves from diseases and make responsible decisions. Others warn that it is merely a way of introducing ideology into schools and taking away parents’ right to decide how their children are raised. Supporters of compromise call for classes to be available only with parental consent and in a neutral, medical form. So, is health education a necessary support, or rather a risky social experiment?
