Censorship

I think this issue is very delicate. I personally do not believe in censorship of any sort for my own children. However, I am going to be held responsible for what other people’s children are exposed to on the internet. That is a huge responsibility. As a parent, I have taught and modeled to my children the importance of asking questions and discussing what they read and watch. I have a very open relationship with them. Other people raise their children differently. Who am I to say what is or is not appropriate for others’ children. As a teacher I have to err on the side of caution. I want to keep my job even though I believe, philosophically, censorship is wrong.
