Allow Them to Take Risks
Isaac Kantor is the father of 15 year old Mica Kantor, plaintiff in the Held v. State of Montana lawsuit that went to court in June 2023. Isaac is an attorney in Missoula, Montana. We had the opportunity to interview Isaac at the courthouse in Helena, MT on the first day of historic Held v. MT trial to ask him what it means to support his child as a plaintiff and how other parents can support youth voices.
“This has to be a multi-generational effort. We want to do more than just clap the youth on the back and say, “good job.” We personally need to do things as well. It is extremely important as parents to take some time out of our lives to prioritize affecting some change. ”
