There’s no such thing as ‘parents’ rights’

Parents have a right to raise their children in accordance with their own values

Great start!

As long as those values do not override those of other parents, go at it.

Parents should always have the right to remove their child from a situation they do not agree with. They should never have the right to tell other parents or teachers how to teach other children.

At some point, the child would start thinking for themselves and their decisions should be given value too, as long as it isn't illegal or detrimental. Far too often, we hear of children wanting vaccine shots but parents not allowing them to.

Honestly the less rights parents have the better, IMO. They need certain rights just to operate but man, some of them are very shit people.
