I’m not a parent, so you have that experiance where I don’t. Are there any books, in your opinion, that shouldn’t be in schools?

My parents have extremely strong point of view when it comes to sex: only when you’re married, no porn, etc.

My argument is that it might make sense for a very religious state to protect their children with regards to their beliefs.

I agree with you that high schoolers could probably handle a book like that. But I don’t think it’s as far of an over-reach as your suggesting. A high schooler would have the ability to get it via their own means. (Go to the public library, or get it on kindle)

I’m originally from Utah, and I actually grew up “LDS” (Mormon). My family member’s are still strong believers. I consider myself agnostic now.

That being said, I think that parents should be given the perogative to introduce certain things to their kids.

This is the one book on the list by Judy Blume: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forever…_(novel)

I think it’s reasonable not to have that book in a school library.

I’m completely open to questions or criticisms on my point of view.

I’ve been using piped. It’s pretty fast from my (limited) experience. It doesn’t have the ability to comment, but core features like playlist creation exist. There’s also an android app front-end available from f-droid called LibreTube.
