Balancing the Rights of Parents and Children
Originally Presented as Part of Virtual 2022 Public Interest Law Day - Thursday, December 8, 2022
This panel will examine varying emerging ethical and legal conflicts that can arise between parents, their minor children, and how different substantive areas of the law address these tensions. Panelists will address conflicts that arise between parents and children in areas such as dependency, education, and health law. For example, (1) medical and behavioral health decisions by and for LGBTQ+ youth, (2) book bans, curriculum restrictions, and access to gender-segregated programs and spaces in schools, and (3) systems that deal with poverty, neglect, and abuse through an adversarial process placing children and parents against each other. Panelists will also explore ethical considerations such as identifying who is the client and ethical rules that apply when representing minors. Panelists will engage in a discussion of whose or what interests the law is intending to protect in each of these situations, provide insight into navigating these ethical dilemmas from a legal perspective, and identify the existence of disparate results in different areas of the law.
