Because they exist, I guess.
Why do you want to cancel them ?
what does any of that crap have to do with educating children?
Reading
Respect
Interpersonal relationships
Broadens their horizons
Psychology
And if you are one of the unlucky ones inflicted. Maybe a feeling of inclusion
Nothing there has anything to do with education Reading garbage is not enlightening anybody.

That is such an insane comment on so many fronts. But one thing it confirms is that we can homeschooling to the list of bullshit that never happened.
What parent would ever assign his or her child to read this shit - besides you?
What parent would want their kid to adopt their prejudices and insecurities? What parent wouldn't want better for their kid ?
My kid read what she wanted to, for that reason. Being just like me was that last thing I wanted for her.
The world is a big place.
Talk about avoiding the issue - good job.
The issue is the kids, freedom and education. Not you. The kids aren't as easily offended as some grownups. The mere mention that different people exist is not grounds for book banning.
Put them where the adults go. There is no need for them in schools and it does nothing to help in their education.
