How far should religious freedom go?

Here's a couple that prayed for their children's health instead of taking them to the doctor:

The mother of a childhood friend of mine died because she refused on religious grounds a transfusion which might have saved her life. At least that's what I remember.

Should people be allowed to make such decisions for themselves? I think they should.

Should they be allowed to make such decisions for their children? Not if the children belong to the state.

What's your take on this?
