Rome's annual LGBTQ+ Pride parade wound its way through the Italian capital on Saturday, providing a colorful counterpoint to the national government's crackdown on surrogate pregnancies and same-sex parents.
Such registration automatically enables the non-biological parent to do a range of parental actions, from authorizing medical treatment for the child to picking the child up from school without special permission.
Italy allows same-sex civil unions but not marriage. Italy also doesn’t allow its citizens who are single to adopt children. Among opposition politicians joining the Pride event was Sen. Alessandra Maiorino, of the populist 5-Star Movement. She said it was important to be present because rights of the LGBTQ+ community are “under attack.” She decried as “intolerable” the Meloni government’s attitude to children of same-sex couples.
