“The very idea of book banning hurts me to my core. However, just like movies have ratings, I don’t see a reason not to limit access to books that are graphic in nature. I think a parent should have the right to monitor what their children read. Banning books is extreme, but monitoring what a child reads and limiting access to topics beyond their level of understanding is reasonable.
If a parent believes that a book with a particularly sensitive topic is a great Segway to a conversation with their child about an experience they’ve had, then that book can easily be obtained on Amazon or a local bookstore. It doesn’t need to be in the library of an elementary school. And, just because a book is considered a classic doesn’t necessarily make it appropriate for every child at any age. Some books will be better understood when children are older. That’s common sense.
I consider myself a liberal, a huge fan of the most and best education anyone can have, and a person who is completely opposed to banning any book. But some topics and some books are better left to children of a certain age. And, and as many have said, leave it to the parents to decide. If you know your child, you should know what their capable of understanding. And, having this take place in the privacy of that child’s home also seems like a reasonable choice.
With the endless battles about education, and its disappointing results these days, I would appreciate more conversations about how to make the most of the short amount of time we have to get our kids truly educated while loving to learn…about EVERYTHING… as their age and maturity permit. A well-educated society makes better choices.
In closing, I was also disappointed with the way you conducted your interview. You were rude and badgering. I believe that you are better than that. A person can still be polite and respectful even when a person doesn’t agree with or like the other.

“I always enjoy the discussions, it's only about 25% of the broadcast and the podcast doesn't update on a regular basis on my iPhone's Stitcher (sometimes only once a week). ”

“Although this show airs daily on MSNBC, the posts appear very irregularly. Also, only the first part of the show is in the podcast, although many references are made to guests and topics in the second part. So, fairly frustrating in general.”
