The Maine Supreme Court recently unanimously upheld a custody order prohibiting a mother from taking her 13-year-old daughter to her church or religious events. The court reportedly also upheld that Emily Bickford can't expose her daughter to religious beliefs, like the Bible, without approval from the girl's father. The courts in Maine have granted the girl's father "decision-making authority" over his daughter's exposure to religion, so Bickford hasn't been allowed to take her daughter to church for nearly two years.
