Library porn--just say "No!" Pagan agenda--not with our kids!
What do you think of this article? The ALA (American Library Association) and Looking For Alaska -One Example of How the ALA Pushes Porn On Children,at
http://www.safelibraries.org/pushers.htm#who_are_yaAccording to the article, "Even children's book authors have become disgusted with recent trends in children's books, and the books have invaded school libraries and school curricula as well. Barbara Feinberg, author of "Welcome to Lizard Motel: Children, Stories, and the Mystery of Making Things Up" (Beacon Press), found her 12-year-old son Alex "steel himself, again and again, for the joyless task of completing the assigned reading for his 'language arts' class...."
Her curiosity plunges Feinberg into the contemporary genre of young adult (Y.A.) 'problem novels,' the bane of her son's existence."
"Teachers love them," the local librarian explains as Feinberg scans a shelf of such titles. "They win all the awards."
Well, I can't say that is encouraging news, either for authors or parents. Are you interested in avoiding the secular school, high school or public college agenda? Homeschooling through college, or at least freshman courses, can help students avoid secular courses that often target impressionable youth for indoctrination into secular worldviews.
