Mike Pence Opens the Door to Child Abuse [2012]

Mike Pence was a co-sponsor of H.J.Res.3. This Amendment to the Constitution would open the door to child abuse and parents choosing not to educate their children. Does Mike Pence think that all parents are good parents? What a huge mistake this would be! There are many extreme Fundamentalist families that are awaiting the opportunity to have such an Amendment and dodge Child Protection services. These families are looking for loopholes so that they don't have to 'spare the rod'.
