Free Exercise of Religion

Can parents, on behalf of their children, opt-out of school English classes that read books about same-sex marriage, LGBTQ+ issues, or similar topics, on the grounds that having their children read such books violates their “Free Exercise of Religion” rights to control their children’s religious up-bringing? In Mahmoud v. Taylor, the Supreme Court says “Yes”.
