This week, our guest is Melissa Moschella, professor of practice and philosophy at Notre Dame University’s McGrath Center for Church Life. Her areas of expertise include natural law, biomedical ethics, and the family, especially parental rights. She’s also the author of To Whom Do Children Belong: Parental Rights, Civic Education, and Children’s Autonomy. This week, Melissa tells us about a pivotal Supreme Court case about parental rights and education that’s turning 100 next year: Pierce v. Society of Sisters. Melissa argues that, while the Supreme Court has generally held to a narrow interpretation of this case in the subsequent years, a broader interpretation would better safeguard parental rights in public and private educational settings. The EPPiC Broadcast is hosted by Michael Ramey, president of the Parental Rights Foundation.
