Oliver Brown, left, 7, protests as he does homework with his mother, Mary Beth Brown, 37, at their kitchen table, Wednesday, April 3, 2019, at their family farm straddling Saltlick and Bullskin. Oliver was born prematurely by C-section and needed extra help in school, so the Browns sent him to a private Christian school that could accommodate his developmental disability without a specific diagnosis. The school community raised money so the other Brown children could also attend the school.
