Nov 5, 2013 at 6:10 am
AP reports on a federal lawsuit filed last Friday challenging New Jersey's ban on sexual orientation conversion therapy for minors. Alleging 1st and 14th Amendment violations, the suit, filed by parents of a 15-year old boy, claims that the ban:
den[ies] minors the opportunity to pursue a particular course of action that can help them address the conflicts between their religious and moral values and same-sex attractions, behaviors or identity.
A similar challenge was filed in August by different plaintiffs. (See prior posting.)
