El derecho de los padres a decidir en la educación de sus hijos como expresión de la libertad religiosa en el Perú

Abstract

The present work seeks to develop the topic of the right that parents have to decide specifically in the education of their children, having as a main reference their own moral and religious convictions as an expression of a family model that should be the basis and the ultimate goal of society. This fundamental right of parents is closely related to the right to religious freedom that both parents and children have. Recently in Peru, a “bill” has been discussed that seeks to expressly recognize what the Peruvian constitution already states, granting parents the right to choose the sexual education that their children receive, in the face of the new ideologies in educational and sexual subjects that are taught in educational centers and that often collide with the religious convictions of the family. A current challenge in Perú.
