Crazy, isn’t it? My homeschooled kids are involved in a lot of extracurricular activities, and I’m constantly signing releases for them to participate in scouting, various sports, youth group activities, etc. I’ve even had to sign releases several times for my children to be photographed at events.
We need parental permission for photographs to be taken, but it’s perfectly okay for invasive medical exams to be given and dangerous drugs to be administered without even notifying the parents? Bizarre.
