Opposing Censorship

I am opposed to parents having any control over what their child or any other child should read. Parents should share their ideas and values with their child and should be allowed to try and convince their child about what he or she should read, but I believe that the decision should be made by the child and the child alone. By letting your child make their own decisions now, they will gain experience and confidence to make intelligent decisions in the future. To make sure children make good decisions, it's the parents responsibility to teach them good morale values. Parents who make decisions for their children think that they are "protecting" their children when in reality they are setting them up for failure in their futures by making them to dependent on their parents. I ultimately believe that parents should provide suggestions to their child and the to the library about what should be read, but the decision should be made by us.
