Reply to comment by RoyOfCon in I’m a PA mom who is suing my children’s school district over this shocking curriculum by dissolutewastrel

The mom is just trying to opt out of part of the curriculum. You don't have to agree with this parent, but that's the point. Every parent has this right, and it makes it so you can trust the schools won't teach your kids things you disagree with either way. If the school was pushing "Judeo-Christian morals," parents could and should opt out of that too.

As someone else in this thread has already shown, her child is in high school, well past the K-6 stage where this curriculum is being taught. She isn’t fighting for her child at all, she’s causing a stink for something that has no effect on her or her child’s life.

Despite all the fluff/nonsense in the article, it seems that this is the only action the parent is taking:

> Thankfully, parents have strong parental rights here in Pennsylvania. Chapter four of the Pennsylvania School Code authorizes parents or guardians to "have their children excused from specific instruction that conflicts with their religious beliefs." 

I agree with this law and would support a lawsuit if it was violated. I don't know what else this parent would have to complain about.

She isn’t taking any action because she can’t take any action. Her child isn’t at that school and isn’t being taught that curriculum.

Welp, guess we’ll have to toss science out.
