- W1870922207 abstract "Parents want what is best for their child. The preceding statement is practically a truism, subject to rare exceptions. Parents almost always strive to act in the child’s best interest as they interpret it to be. At times society and the parents have differing interpretations as to what is in the child’s best interests. However, an absolute answer to the question what is best for the child or what is in the child’s best interests does not exist. The answer is always qualified by the baseline one uses to evaluate the question. The baseline may for example be spiritual salvation, intellectual growth, social development, fitness to compete for economic rewards in the or the child’s current gratification. Even after agreeing on a particular baseline, whether a particular mean is the best or even proper for attaining the desired end is debatable. However society usually defers to the judgment of parents on these matters because it is the parents’ natural duty to raise the child. Indeed everyone generally recognizes that parents have a fundamental to direct the upbringing of their children. Although society defers to parents on many aspects when it comes to the upbringing of their children, it will not do so if the parents’ means in achieving the ends of a particular baseline conflicts with the ends of another baseline deemed to be compelling by society. For example, if the parents’ religion requires them to mutilate the child in order for the child to achieve spiritual salvation, this would harm the child and would be seen as unacceptable by society. The parents who see spiritual salvation as being more important than worldly harm are genuinely acting in the child’s best interests as they see it. However this view is in tension with that of society which sees the child’s physical well-being as being more compelling. According to the US Supreme Court, although parents may have a fundamental to direct the upbringing of their children and an additional Exercise of Religion (hereinafter Free Exercise right), these rights must give way to the child’s to be free from harm where they conflict. In this article, I put two traditional rights: the Exercise and the to direct the upbringing of one’s child, up against a potential which the Court has never considered: the child’s right to an open future, first proposed by the philosopher Joel Feinberg. Generally, the child’s to an open future is violated if the parent acts in any manner, including the exercise of their own fundamental rights, which irreversibly closes off certain key options for the child when he is an adult. This battle of rights will be discussed by examining Wisconsin v. Yoder, and the Old Order Amish whose religious tenets forbid Amish children from attending high school." @default.
