Thinking of how many religious families suppress their children's sexual exploration every psychologist agrees is natural, normal, and positive a violation of that child's basic civil rights to "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiiness" or their basic human rights to self-determination?

Why does the law only ever get involved in what religious parents are doing to their kids when the kid dies, or nearly dies as with refusal of medical services? Should the law be more proactive and intervene if parents try "forcing their possibly gay kids straight," or "physically punishing children masturbating" and the like?

Our hypoer-PC culture has children being expelled from school for 'playing guns' using their empty hands and fingers. Would think then the law'd be okay going after parents for doing seemingly harmless things too. Though in stiffling a child's exploration of their sexuality and capacity for pleasure, that's actually very harmful indeed and is tends to form long-term psychological problems. If it's considered child-abuse to spank a child's bottom now in some locales, what about mental abuse far more damaging as is often seen in religious families?
