Summary
In New York, children aged 6 to 16 are legally required to attend school, and parental refusal to allow attendance may be considered neglect. Public school teachers cannot force students to participate in religious activities, such as reading the Bible, due to the separation of church and state. North Koreas constitution claims to provide rights like free speech and religious freedom, but these are heavily restricted. Chinas constitution also offers rights like freedom of speech and religion, but they are limited in practice.Full Conversation
