[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is a reason parents object to some of these books being available in school libraries. This is not "banning." [twitter]https://twitter.com/EndWokeness/status/1701633651891417364[/twitter][/quote] I am a parent. I do not object. A small portion of parents don’t get to dictate to everyone. [/quote] I’m a school librarian. 25 years running. Pretty sure I haven’t corrupt anyone on my watch. My own children read whatever they wanted to. They’re all successful adults. Trust professionals. [/quote] I'm a former teacher and a parent of two. These books are not appropriate for school libraries. And, since tax dollars fund the purchase of books, we do indeed get a say in books available to students. Purchase the classics. Purchase appropriate literature. Leave the smut for parents to purchase for their own children. And, sorry - we have seen over the past 3 years that blind trust in professionals is naive. [/quote] Have you read either of these books in their entirety. WHY arent' they appropriate? Why do YOU get to decide for my children. I'm a tax payer too. I want them there for my children to read. Yours don't HAVE to read them. That's kind of how libraries work. [/quote] Well for one, the book Genderqueer which most of the controversy is about had images of oral sex and an image of a naked adult man with an erection touching a boy’s penis. Why would you want that anywhere let alone schools?[/quote] Exactly We don’t want teenagers to understand what abuse looks like. We don’t want to give them language to articulate abuse. We don’t want them informed or educated. We want them “sheltered” and “innocent”. It makes it easier for us to groom and rape them. Signed, Southern Baptist ministers, Catholic priests, evangelical pastors, Boy Scout troop leaders, and many republican elected officials. [/quote] genderqueer isn’t depicting it as abuse but as a fantasy [/quote]
