I agree in that instance it was inappropriate. Even that article says the retailer recommends it for high school students. I would be against removing it from high schools, not elementary schools.

I am not a fan of “banning” any book. I was an advanced reader but I wouldn’t have wanted to read this book at any age. That said, I don’t have an issue with it being in a public library where a parent could consent for the child to check it out. It shouldn’t be available for a 12 year old to check out by themselves. I am not a prude but it was some heavy content that should have someone put in context for a child.

We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.
Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.

A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don’t reply to it.
