No apologies necessary! It's infuriating as hell that "parental rights" apparently are more important than the actual health and well-being of children, and we shouldn't quietly accept this state of things.

The conservative Christian homeschooling movement (which I grew up in) had a huge hand in promoting the concept of "parental rights" internationally. The concept is explicitly intended to include the "right" of parents to abuse and/or neglect their kids.
