I abstained in the final vote because of the approval of Amendment 67. Otherwise, the document is acceptable and in many respects excellent, but I cannot consent that the fight against violence towards children be carried out partly through ‘the inclusion of new family models’, or that the European Union should ‘bring added value’ to the actions undertaken by the Member States partly by promoting new family models. In fact, everyday experience and a great deal of psychological and sociological research prove that the greatest violence perpetrated against children is the break-up of their parents' emotional relationships, the stability and certainty of which are assured – I mean to the greatest possible extent – by marriage. It is also well known that children need both a male and a female reference figure. The idea that encouraging homosexual unions and devaluing marriage means fighting to protect children from violence is therefore unacceptable."@en1
