[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Youngkin made us go through every book in the curriculum. If ANY sexual content is in there, and that means any, we have to alert the parents. This email sounds insane and it’s actually just to tell you “Hey, your kid is reading Romeo and Juliet which contains a very obtuse joke about penises.” But legally we have to tell you. -hs teacher [/quote] Romeo and Juliet also includes suicide, teens killing each other, and 14 year olds having sex with people they met yesterday. If we are going to make the argument that kids should be shielded from reading about people doing things that their parents disapprove of, then acting like this book is fine because it’s “classic” is absurd.[/quote] It’s the graphic and explicit way in which the content is presented, not the content itself[/quote]
