@RepStickland won't explain what he means by "parental rights." That's probably because any serious discussion would involve difficult questions of where parental rights end and the child's rights begin.Show this thread -
Does
@RepStickland subscribe, for instance, to@RandPaul's view of parental rights in which the parents own the children? (No, he really said this: "The state doesn’t own the children. Parents own the children, and it is an issue of freedom.") 3/https://respectfulinsolence.com/2015/02/03/is-republican-party-becoming-antivaccine-party/ …Show this thread -
Or does
@RepStickland think that children have rights as autonomous beings in the temporary care of their parents? I suspect he views children more as property or appendage, because FREEDOM. (Be really hasn't come across as very bright so far.) 4/Show this thread -
