Maybe I'll change my mind, though. Thanks for the reminder.<br /><br />My parents never controlled my reading choices, though they made suggestions and poited out if a book might not be enjoyable. Mainly, my dad just read a book, too, so he could talk about it if he needed to. I think that's an incredibly supportive way to "censor" the information your kids get. Just be open and talk about stuff. Otherwise, they WILL learn stuff you don't want them to, and they won't feel welcome to talk to you about it.

Out of the top 10 list, I've read four and loved all of them, especially No. 1 on the list, one of my all-time favorites.Bryan G.

But, I say, do you feel like you should also decide what everyone else's children should read?<br /><br />http://readerbuzz.blogspot.com/2015/09/what-i-read-and-what-im-reading.htmlDeb Nance at Readerbuzzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12128529491888701996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5447574405650512339.post-62658942688854866292015-09-27T13:41:39.381-04:002015-09-27T13:41:39.381-04:00Fantastic post!

I totally agree with you: parents need to talk to their kids about reading and certain books, not try to ban books for all kids. The Color Purple by Alice Walker is a banned book that I want to read, but won't have the time for it this week. <br /><br />Have a good week.Vasillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08463689838763126048noreply@blogger.com
