I think we all have the right to raise our children as we see fit within reason. If one chooses to censor their children's books, that is no concern of mine.
Having said that, I would never censor my children's reading. They are free to read what they wish, when they wish.
I think we draw the line at the point where "one man's fist meets the other one's nose." In life there are people who are always going to have different views, I hope to raise my children to be tolerant of others views, to appreciate their own beliefs as important, and how to engage in healthy debate (and what to do when debate goes wrong!)
I am ever grateful to the librarian who gave me the book "Johnny got his Gun" when I was in high school. She lent it to me from her personal collection and I will never forget the look on her face as she handed it to me. She is an incredible woman!
