I agree with that guy about censorship, so I won′t repeat it but I want to add that there is no such things as , well apart from literature aimed at children, there is no such thing as "adult" and "adolescent" books!. Art is said to be universal!. Therefore anyone at any age can read any literary text, of course from different perspectives which are related to the personal experience, maturity and culture of the reader but anyone can achieve aesthetic experience!. I am talking about actual literature not commercial and worthless trashy texts such as "Harry Potter" and "Twilight"Www@QuestionHome@Com

I'm guessing you mean like the Parental Advisory stickers on music and ESRB ratings on video games, right!? I think it, and every other form of censorship, is essentially bad!. It does not stop children from getting these things, all it does is increase shoplifting and destroy an essential American freedom!. An essential human freedom!. When art is placed under a single strand of restraint it is diminished immeasurably!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yeah for the most part I'm against censorship!. But when young children are involved, at times it is necessary!.
Parental Advisory type stickers are not stopping anyone from reading them, but its warning people what to expect!.
So I guess if this is what you mean, then I'm for it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It was brought in not for the kids but for people buying books for kids!. As a Grandparent I would not be sure at what stage my Grandchildren were at for reading, so it is helpful to see a book labelled for a 10 year old !.
Nothing to do with censorship!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
