Please do not infringe upon the rights and responsibilities of parents:
Parents are closest to their child’s challenges; they are in the best position to make healthcare decisions involving the wellbeing of their child.
Under Virginia law, parents have the fundamental right to make decisions regarding the upbringing, education and care of their children.
Some young people may have attractions they desire to change or moderate. Others may simply desire guidance from a counselor to live a chaste life. In either instance, there should be options for families to make informed decisions.
