I'm not a parent, so you have that experiance where I don't. Are there any books, in your opinion, that shouldn't be in schools?
My parents have extremely strong point of view when it comes to sex: only when you're married, no porn, etc.
My argument is that it might make sense for a very religious state to protect their children with regards to their beliefs.
I agree with you that high schoolers could probably handle a book like that. But I don't think it's as far of an over-reach as your suggesting. A high schooler would have the ability to get it via their own means. (Go to the public library, or get it on kindle)
