There is a legitimate public interest in these issues. If a parent were to withhold medical care believing a vegetarian diet will cure cancer, is that their exclusive right? Hence laws govern child protection even when you do not respect your neighbors. I am not saying what the appropriate public policies are here, but policy needs to be worked out from dialog with all stakeholders.

There's a difference between child neglect/abuse and medical care. Except in Texas.
