Actually, there are two substantive due process cases from the 1920's that are sort of the ancestors of the right-to-privacy cases and that Kennedy's opinion today cited with approval. They are Pierce v. Society of Sisters, 268 U.S. 510 (1925) (right of a parent to choose to send a child to a Catholic school, despite a state law against it), and Meyer v. Nebraska, 262 U.S. 390 (1923) (right of a parent to send a child to a German-language school, despite a state law against it).

Thanks, but I think you got the wrong poster. Did you mean that for me?
