This bill establishes a "Parent's Bill of Rights" in Minnesota, codified in chapter 260C of the Minnesota Statutes. It defines key terms such as "minor child" and "parent," and outlines the fundamental rights of parents regarding the upbringing, education, and health care of their minor children. These rights include directing education choices, accessing and reviewing school and medical records, providing informed consent for health care decisions, and being notified of any suspected criminal offenses against their child. The bill emphasizes that these rights should not be infringed upon by the state or any governmental entities.

Additionally, the bill includes provisions to protect parents from coercion or discrimination for exercising their rights and clarifies that it does not permit abuse or neglect of a child. It asserts that parental rights are inalienable and more comprehensive than those explicitly listed in the act, ensuring that parents' rights cannot be limited or denied unless legally waived or terminated. The legislation aims to reinforce the authority of parents in making decisions for their children while maintaining the state's ability to act within its legal framework.
