A Washington father is suing his son's school district after his 10-year-old was taught about gender surgery during a Pride Month lesson without being allowed to opt-out due to religious objections. The father claims this violates his child's right to free exercise of religion.
A Washington father is suing his son's public school district for denying his request to opt out of LGBTQ instruction, citing that his 10-year-old was taught about gender surgery during a Pride Month lesson despite his prior protests as a Christian parent. The father claims the school district's refusal to accommodate his request violates his religious freedom and parental rights. He is seeking damages and a court order requiring the district to provide opt-out options for parents with objections based on their faith or moral convictions. The lawsuit raises concerns about the limits of LGBTQ education in public schools.
