Her time was not up. She was told to stop because there were children in the room. But, it is okay to have in a high school library The language offended me but she was making a valid point. Board member, should have asked her to stop and thanked her for bringing it to their attention. Instead, she became angry. It was extremely offensive--but, how else do you get the attention of this School Board?

Yes, somethings are appropriate for 16 year olds and not 7 year olds. Apparently that’s a novel concept

That book is not appropriate for 16 year olds. Does Robinson Secondary School have a separate library for the middle school? And, by the way, lots of high school students are well under 16.

That book is porn.

Her post on the Robinson parents Facebook page said it was assigned reading for one of the IB English classes for 11th graders. The moderators have deleted it so I didn’t catch whether the kids had a choice or not. But the majority of the parents responding said it wasn’t porn, just sexually explicit, and the most vocal were generally okay with it “because kids are reading that type of stuff in 2021 anyway so no big deal”.

I’m trying not to overreact and start researching Catholic high schools because of one book but it’s hard not to get upset.

For everybody or for themselves?

Do you know what the book was? Now I'm curious.

I think it was Lawn Boy. There may have been more than one book. The language was extremely graphic in describing what the characters did sexually. And, they apparently did it with an older man--I think that was the pedophilia part.

Very disturbing. Not appropriate language for a SB meeting and not appropriate language for minors in a high school.

Does Board not understand that high school kids are minors?

It met my description of porn. Very graphic description of male sex acts and included pedophilia, as well.

I would not have read it out loud, but it sure got the attention. Board called a five minute recess.

No. She demanded to get the time back that they took away from her. They cut people off when the time is up.

They did cut her off and her microphone but she kept screaming.

I one is making the kids check out these books. IF the teacher was assigning them, then refuse.

And now we have regular wannabe right wing media viral star, Asra Nomani. Again.
