I know you're not, and it sickens me, too.  But the answer is not the 
government forcing them to follow the government's rules.  

And having their beliefs attacked will only make them dig in their heels. 
They'll consider it some sort of holy crusade to evade or avoid 
government regulations and bureaucrats.

Things change in their own course, and ru****ng in to force change only 
makes people stubborn.  The internet is now bringing knowledge and 
information to even the remotest places, and people will change and adapt 
for themselves.  Or die.  

Look, I know this isn't a good solution, but until we can be sure that 
whatever we as a society decide will do no harm, we shouldn't interfere.

Parents do/did all those things because that was the fa****on.  So let's 
change the fa****on.
