Penalties for those who are unwilling to integrate: 2,500 euros threaten!

In a heated debate about Integration and traditions in Lower Austria, Governor Johanna Mikl-Leitner (ÖVP) made a far-reaching proposal: the fines for parents who refuse to integrate their children are to be drastically increased, from a maximum of 440 euros to an impressive. "If you want to live here, you have to accept our values, traditions and rules," said Mikl-Leitner, who uses the demand to the next federal government, as Today. Their goal is to improve school integration and to be responsible for parents who show German or their children do not participate in the lessons.

This requirement is part of a more comprehensive initiative that also includes the integration of customs into the educational plan. Mikl-Leitner sees a need for action to promote respect for cultural values. She argued that years of “good things” had brought little and now called for consistent measures to create a responsible school culture. A central element of her plan is to have mandatory talks between teachers and parents in bullying or other serious incidents, such as noe.orf.at also reported.

Furthermore, Mikl-Leitner emphasized the importance of cultural identity, with a recent study showing that 80 percent of Lower Austrians consider customs and traditions. According to Mikl-Leitner, the criticism of unfortunate families is often justified, since they do not convey the fundamental values of society. Values that treat women and men equally and promote consideration should be reinforced by these new regulations in order to create a safe and fair school environment for everyone.
