Show Notes
Marc Cox speaks with Mary Katherine Martin of the Thomas More Society about the planned LGBTQ+ Day of Silence in schools on April 10th. Martin explains parents’ legal rights to opt their children out of school-sponsored activities that conflict with religious or deeply held beliefs, citing recent Supreme Court precedents. The discussion highlights the Kirkwood School District’s proactive video promoting participation, concerns over coercion, and the importance of alternative instruction for students who opt out. Parents are encouraged to actively communicate with their school districts to exercise these rights and ensure their children are not compelled into participation.
