These irresponsible parents need to check their kids phones before they decide that school libraries are full of "porn". Moms for Liberty have the freedom to be complete hypocrites.

Again, many of the parents who object to these books are the same parents who give their kids dumbphones instead of smartphones and make sure their children's Internet use is monitored. Because we don't want our children accessing pornographic material. You know why I'm concerned about this issue? Because my parents didn't care and let me have unsupervised Internet in middle school and I ended up finding pornography and chat rooms as a 7th grade girl.

So now you plan to police the rest of us? SCREW THAT!

I think you believe that you’re telling us some awful truth, but those of us who volunteer in our kids’ libraries and have read the books your side is banning know you’re full of sit.

Furthermore, your repeated linkage of “porn” and “schools” really tells on you.

Funny how Mr. Steele deletes the posts that shows it and school boards don't let it be read out loud.

So, now you have an issue with censorship? Funny how that works.

It's his show he can do whatever he want.

But if not appropriate on this website or school board meeting, not for the children's.

The "children's" weren't reading that book. It was in a high school.

And since 99.999 % of high schoolers have phones, they have access to true porn 24/7.

So don't give us that crap about how you want to protect the little darlings from porn.

Well some of us don't give our children smartphones or let them have unfiltered access to the Internet.

Exactly. Just get the porn out of our schools.

There’s no porn in schools. It’s a right wing lie, and you enjoy being led around by the nose.

There's definitely porn in schools. I came across some very explicit romance novels in the high school library when I was a teen. And yes, I'm just as much against hetero bodice rippers in school libraries as I am against LGBT explicit material.

If you're responding to me, I specified smartphones.

I am 60. By the time I was 10 I had all the basics of sex down between school puberty classes and and information 4 book series on puberty and sex from my parents, I think from Time Life.

I also read a lot and my parents never restricted me. So I had a realistic view of what sex was, good and bad, before I became sexually active. Which was in my 20s, with my now husband.

Reading about sex when I was 12 was not bad. It was not "porn." And it gave me the foundation to proceed with my life to the fullest because I was not naive.

Have you looked at Gender Queer or This Book is Gay? These are the books parents are objecting to. They don’t want books in school libraries telling their kids to sign up for Grindr. Maybe you’re okay with that, but a lot of people aren’t.

Some schools most definitely do have porn.

A book with sexual content including a graphic novel style book with drawings is NOT automatic porn.

There is not porn in schools. And yes I've seen the books in question.

The repeated book banning posters completely ignore that we've had books with sexual content in schools for decades.

A book with drawings of sex and explanation of masturbation was a part of 5th grade sex ed for me in the late 80s.

I also read Forever and yes, made me LESS interested in sex in my teens. That and Brenda's pregnancy scare on 90210 (which one of my friend's parents banned from watching and guess which one of us ended up having early sex and getting pregnant early? Hint: not me with the less restrictive parent)

Can we shout the bolded from the rooftops? It's also NOT automatic porn if it has sexual pictures/drawings.
