I’m wondering the same.


Well for one extremely important thing, his education policies are parent centered


Well, I'm a Virginia parent. I would like my children to be taught sex education (and none of that abstinence only crap), I would like them to learn about our country's history of systemic racism, and I want them to have access to books with queer characters, and I think there should be gender neutral bathrooms in all schools so kids of all gender expressions feel safe and supported. Are you good with that?


No I’m not. And I’m a VA parent too. It is my job (and yours too, except you seem all too willing to shirk it) to teach my kids about sex, including that abstinence only crap if that is in line with our values.


Then send them to Catholic/private school..you have a choice. No one is forcing you to send your kid to a public school.

If you can’t afford it, then work harder. Isn’t that what you all say?



Why should I be forced to send my kids to private schools when I pay taxes to support public schools? Are you advocating for vouchers now?


Why should I be forced to ban books because you’re scared your child will actually learn about the world.

Suck it up and pay tuition. It’s not difficult, just work harder..



It’s not banning books. In many cases it’s actually banning pornography. Surely you can agree that is not appropriate for public schools to be providing to students?


No, it’s not pornography.


Anyone who says this either blissfully has their head in the sand or truly does not know the content of the books in question. They are completely inappropriate for minors.


I have read the books, have you?

Not all mature content is pornography. It's appropriate for older teens.


Yes I have, at least as much of it as I could stomach. Or get through without laughing at the sheer ridiculousness of the poorly written text.

No, mature content does not belong in school libraries. How about this- if you’re so eager for your teens to learn the ins and outs of gay sex (pun intended) go buy them these books.

And these people are peculiarly interested in making sure their kids have access to graphically sexual books. They’re free to buy them or borrow from their local pubic library to share with their own kids. Graphic images of blowjobs, dildos, masturbation, etc. do not belong in school libraries. I have to wonder if these morons are parents at all.

And to the idiot PP who questions whether we’ve read the books in question - of course we have. Which is why when you gaslight us about what’s actually in them, we will call you out on it. Funny how school boards wouldn’t even allow excerpts of these books to be read aloud in SB meetings because, “There might be children present!” Perfect example of the absolute hypocrisy on the left.


If you don't want your children to read those books, then forbid them from reading those books.


They do not belong in school libraries. Period. They violate community standards of what children should have easy access to. Why are you so hellbent in having your kids read this trash?

If you're so hellbent on your kids not reading those books, then don't let them read those books. That's your choice as a parent.

Nice dodge of the question. You’re not a parent are you? Be honest, if possible, for once.

Disagree. Unless we’re taking about completely different books. The graphic novels that are making the rounds on Twitter are truly sickening

My opinion is that they should be in libraries. Youngkin says that parents get to decide these things so I decided: These books are in.

This is one I haven’t seen so I don’t know and can’t speak to this title specifically. But, again actually to Twitter, it contains specific references to gay sex, as in how-tos.

I would like my children to be taught sex education (and none of that abstinence only crap), I would like them to learn about our country's history of systemic racism, and I want them to have access to books with queer characters, and I think there should be gender neutral bathrooms in all schools so kids of all gender expressions feel safe and supported. Are you good with that?


No I’m not. And I’m a VA parent too. It is my job (and yours too, except you seem all too willing to shirk it) to teach my kids about sex, including that abstinence only crap if that is in line with our values.


Then send them to Catholic/private school..you have a choice. No one is forcing you to send your kid to a public school.

If you can’t afford it, then work harder. Isn’t that what you all say?



Why should I be forced to send my kids to private schools when I pay taxes to support public schools? Are you advocating for vouchers now?


Why should I be forced to ban books because you’re scared your child will actually learn about the world.

Suck it up and pay tuition. It’s not difficult, just work harder..



It’s not banning books. In many cases it’s actually banning pornography. Surely you can agree that is not appropriate for public schools to be providing to students?


No, it’s not pornography.


Anyone who says this either blissfully has their head in the sand or truly does not know the content of the books in question. They are completely inappropriate for minors.


I have read the books, have you?

Not all mature content is pornography. It's appropriate for older teens.


Yes I have, at least as much of it as I could stomach. Or get through without laughing at the sheer ridiculousness of the poorly written text.

No, mature content does not belong in school libraries. How about this- if you’re so eager for your teens to learn the ins and outs of gay sex (pun intended) go buy them these books.

And these people are peculiarly interested in making sure their kids have access to graphically sexual books. They’re free to buy them or borrow from their local pubic library to share with their own kids. Graphic images of blowjobs, dildos, masturbation, etc. do not belong in school libraries. I have to wonder if these morons are parents at all.

And to the idiot PP who questions whether we’ve read the books in question - of course we have. Which is why when you gaslight us about what’s actually in them, we will call you out on it. Funny how school boards wouldn’t even allow excerpts of these books to be read aloud in SB meetings because, “There might be children present!” Perfect example of the absolute hypocrisy on the left.


If you don't want your children to read those books, then forbid them from reading those books.


I would certainly rather my kids learn about these things in a book than from their peers


You'd like your kids to learn about giving blowjobs, wearing a dildo, and using a vibrator - from a trashy graphic novel? Your poor kids.

I’m wondering the same.


Well for one extremely important thing, his education policies are parent centered

They do not belong in school libraries. Period. They violate community standards of what children should have easy access to. Why are you so hellbent in having your kids read this trash?


We're going to ban the Bible too right? Using your exact quote and standards?


Show us in public school district in the country that has Bibles on property. I will move there next week.


There are plenty. You can even donate bibles to your public school library through a charity. So I ask again, we going to ban bibles?

These are the same people who bring their kids to drag queen story hour. Trash, personified.
