(((eskielover))))) I have to say imo I think the librarian is doing the correct thing by keeping this book away from the child. Maybe as adults we all need to look more at what is out there for kids to see. Of course they are going to know as its on TV. IN vid games. Its all over the net.
Its what your values are I guess. ((Not meaning you))))
Kids now are losing them fast. My son I can say with all honesty is lossing them fast.
Sorry to bring up a kid story of my own but it relates. Just to show everyone.
His school he went to when he was around 11 or 12 he brought home a very grafic disc. His friends had taught him how to download it from the comps at school. The school had no protect. They told me they did not want to inhibit thier growth.
Well that little disc crashed my comp and a few of thiers. Yes what you are thinking was on it. I had never seen anything like it.
The rules on that are now changed at that school.
Another expample. These kids at this school can not read and write well. So one teacher let them write as grafic and as gorrie of storys they wanted too.
I only just learned of this. If those story were written here or any where they would cause great concern. As it did to me.
What are we teaching our kids this ? Kids are kids they will look. But to say ok at a library or school ....I think imo is wrong....
They are blasted with it everywhere.........It makes me sad ....most kids can handle it. But there ones who can not.
Thats why at the movies you have to be 18............
sorry if i voiced my thoughts to much. .......I have 2 kids...One exposed to too much. Thats the one having issues.
