For gosh's sakes, what does a parent's not allowing their children to read a book have to do with censorship?! The word by definition means government-enforced legal restrictions on materials, not private action.

By the way, your list of reading materials is high on trash and lacking in anything substantive. "Clan of the Cave Bear"? For Pete's sake grow up.

LOL, whatever. I was 13 at the time, get off your high horse. At least I wasn’t still trying to sound out Dick and Jane books like many children I was in school with. People who get high minded about the books a voracious child reader reads amuse me.

And parents talk about censoring their children’s TV viewing or books or movies. Live TV shows are censored. I used the term loosely. What would you rather have me call it? I can change my vocabulary if you wish.
