Christian Dad Wins Lawsuit to Shield Son From LGBTQ+ Lessons, Citing Parental Rights
A Boston judge has ruled in favor of a father who sued his local school district to prevent his son’s exposure to LGBTQ+-themed books. The father, citing religious objections, argued his son shouldn’t be subjected to materials that contradict his family’s beliefs. Judge Saylor, referencing a Supreme Court precedent, granted a preliminary injunction, mandating the school district accommodate the father’s request and provide alternative instruction. The district’s lawyers, however, plan to defend against these claims, emphasizing the lack of direct exposure and the impracticality of such opt-out demands.
