By Doug Fabrizio

Salt Lake City, UT –

Listen to the Showhttps://www.kuer.org/images/listenbutton.gif

The story of Parker Jensen, a boy who may or may not have deadly cancer and his fugitive parents running from state mandated chemo-therapy made national news last week and as the story appears to be on the verge of resolution, many questions remain. When does the state have the right to interfere in parenting? How can we protect a parent's rights and balance the welfare of children? Guests: Dr. Martin Nygaard, A Pediatrician in St. George.

Mike Thompson, Attorney and Utah State Legislator

Richard Anderson, Director of Utah Division of Child and Family Services
