    Agree. Who are the persons responsible in this case?

    It begins with the parents and their lack of parenting skills, common
    sense, and true concern for their child's wellbeing.

    The rot began in my generation (GenX) and gets exponentially worse on down
    the line.

    The article I wanted to find was one from New Jersey or New
    York where the news
    interviewed a parent who was told he had to quit reading a book in
    front of the school board because it was "pornographic," which was his point. He wanted to know why the school board allowed the book into
    the school library of his < 18 year old kid (i.e. a minor).

    I read that same article.

    "A Rasmussen survey from September 2022 showed that '89% of likely U.S.
    voters think it is important that public schools fully inform parents about what is being taught to their children in classrooms, including 70% whos ay
    it is Very Important. Sixty-nine percent of voters believe books containing explicit sexual depictions of sex actsaC|should not be present in public high school libraries.' That number skyrockets to 79% and 85% for middle schools and elementary schools."
