Some may feel it is their parental responsibility to ask libraries to remove or reshelve books they feel have inappropriate content. As a parent, I am very sensitive about the books my son reads. There are certainly some I feel are inappropriate, at least at his current age. It is one of my tasks as a parent to screen them for him, however, or to take the time to discuss them with him should he encounter them anyway. To ask the library or the government to be responsible for such screening would be to shirk my parental responsibilities, not to uphold them.
