Judge suspends parental rights until unvaccinated – Mom asks media to help

Published on

After a judge suspended her parental rights until she gets vaccinated against COVID-19, Chicago mum turned to the media to express her displeasure.

Rebecca Firlit of Chicago went to the media to express her dissatisfaction with a judge’s decision to suspend her parental rights until she received the COVID-19 vaccination, which she has refused to receive due to alleged adverse reactions to earlier vaccines.

As the Delta wave continues to spread, the issue of vaccine mandates has become increasingly essential to pandemic response efforts. Mrs. Firlit’s custody battle with her ex-husband took a new turn when Cook County Judge James Shapiro ordered that she be stripped of all parenting time with her kid — custody of whom she shares with her ex-husband — until she is vaccinated.

In an exclusive interview with Fox 32, Firlit said, of the decision, “”I think that it’s wrong. I think that it’s dividing families. And I think it’s not in my son’s best interest to be away from his mother.”

But the ex-husband appears to agree with the decision, if his attorney’s remarks are any indication:

The attorney representing the father, Jeffrey Leving, says they were also surprised by the judge’s decision, but they support the ruling saying that given the pandemic, the child should be protected from an unvaccinated mother.

“There are children who have died because of COVID. I think every child should be safe. And I agree that the mother should be vaccinated,” Leving said.

“I miss my son more than anything. It’s been very difficult. I haven’t seen him since August 10th,” Mrs. Firlit told Fox 32, and said she is appealing the decision.
