Abstract
The Pennsylvania Supreme Court has ruled that an' infant is not a "neglected child" under the Pennsylvania Juvenile Court Act if the parents, on religious grounds, refuse to allow the infant to have surgery requiring a blood transfusion, when the child's life is not immediately endangered by his physical condition.
