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?

Same-sex marriage – equal rights or a privilege?

Should same-sex couples be allowed to marry?

Same-sex marriage has long divided societies and ignited debates about the limits of freedom, tradition, and the redefinition of family values. Supporters emphasize equality – if the constitution guarantees equal treatment, why should orientation exclude someone from marriage? Opponents argue it’s not about discrimination but about defending a cultural foundation: marriage as a union of a man and a woman that passes on life. In the background, there are arguments about “gender ideology,” pressure from the European Union, and even conspiracy theories about global elites wanting to “dismantle the family.” Is this a fight for human rights, or the opening of the door to social engineering? Take part in the poll and decide for yourself.

Same-sex marriage and child adoption

Should same-sex marriages have the right to adopt children?

Same-sex marriages and their right to adopt children remain one of the most heated social disputes. Supporters emphasize that love and stability matter more than the parents’ gender, and every child deserves a safe home. Critics argue that adoption should only occur within the traditional family model, claiming that the absence of a father or mother disrupts the natural upbringing pattern. In the background arise questions about human rights, ideological influence, and controversial studies that some circles say are manipulated to prove the superiority of one model over another. Is this truly a fight for the well-being of children, or rather a political game about redefining the family?

Partner similar to a parent or completely different?

Do you think people often choose a partner who resembles one of their parents or a close person from childhood?

It has long been said that choosing a partner is never accidental – do we really subconsciously look for traits of our mother, father, or someone from childhood in another person? Evolutionary psychology suggests that familiar features or behaviors provide a sense of security and stability. Others claim this is just a myth, and the real driving force is hormones and genes that decide who attracts us. There are also opinions that most people deliberately run away from family patterns, choosing contrast to avoid repeating their parents’ mistakes. Conspiracy theories go even further, suggesting that our preferences may be the result of imprinted social patterns or even cultural manipulation. And you – do you really choose with your heart, or are you just replaying a childhood pattern?
