How does it harm your child in any way to see book covers about gender topics?
Also, never, ever take them into a bookstore if that sort of thing is too damaging for them. They might see something like this and be immediately corrupted! They put them right there out in the open on display!
The ones I've seen are designed like kids cereal boxes. This topic is so vogue and I'm not saying ban them. Just not have them displayed as a hot item. Mental illness affects more people than anything, I never see those books promoted as a hot item.
Romance love novels are hilarious, I'm sorry they affend you. I think they are kinda ridiculous. I never see those displayed as the hot item.
My wife and I are very affectionate and hold each other similar to this, so my kids see what love looks like.
Sorry, are you saying transgender people are all mentally ill?
I'm saying there are more people with mental health issues than there are people having gender identity crises.
Okay? I'm not sure how that's even relevant to how book covers about gender identity harm your child but overtly sexual book covers do not.
I never see them displayed/promoted as the hot item as I previously mentioned.
Yet again, how does it harm your child to see those book covers as "hot items?"
