Abstract

The article focuses on the systemic injustices faced by formerly ultra-Orthodox parents, especially those who are LGBTQ+, in custody disputes over educational decision-making. It highlights the case of "Miriam," a lesbian mother who was forced out of her community and fought against a biased court system that often prioritizes religious adherence over a child's right to a secular education.
