BOSTON (AP) - A federal judge on Friday threw out a lawsuit filed by parents who wanted to keep their young children from learning about gay marriage in school.
U.S. District Judge Mark Wolf said federal courts have decided in other cases that parents' rights to exercise their religious beliefs are not violated when their children are exposed to contrary ideas in school.
Schools are "entitled to teach anything that is reasonably related to the goals of preparing students to become engaged and productive citizens," Wolf said in his ruling.
