| Message | This will give children the best chance they have at a healthy and long life. It does not overly restrict the parents rights to bring up their child how they wish, by allowing defences for religious and ideological reasons. It will only criminalise parents whose only excuse is "they couldn't be bothered". Any person who cares about childhood welfare must agree with this act. |
