Leader’s Lunchtime Roundtable: Parental Rights or Property Rights? You Decide. (Hybrid)

May 18, 2023 @ 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm

Bring your lunch and join Leader Dr. Nori Rost and members for an engaging round-table discussion on the issues of the day and recommended readings.

Much has been made of newly back in vogue “parental rights” movement that is enjoying popularity in states such as Florida, Arkansas, and South Dakota. This shows up as anti-trans legislation, rolling back protections in child labor laws, and avowing that hungry children are not the concern of the state but a result of bad parenting. How should we ethically respond?
