I'm tired of treating children like they need to be educated in a bubble. Kids live in the real world, experience real world events: the good, the bad and the ugly. Every time a book is banned it speaks to the adults and their inability to accept that kids are savvy creatures who see and hear way more than we give them credit for.
When I was that age I was reading the Jackie-O Story and Midnight Express, and seeing images of Vietnam on television. Kids now are exposed to much more explicit media and just life in general.
"Scrotum" seems like such a trivial thing to get all up in arms about.
