Hiding our dirty secrets like the Church and Boy Scouts did hurt so many children. It’s a cruel sick world out there. Children were not allowed to question.
The truth will prepare them better to deal with life when they are able to question and hold accountable.
Agree! Once you start publicly censoring what’s been acceptable regarding literature, there is no end. Someone will object. Intellectual thought is based on conversation about life as it exists. Surely we know what’s acceptable to read at various age levels in our schools. Teachers have been doing this forever. Censoring of literature is very authoritarian to do so in a public way to control intellectual discourse.
