Show Notes
Should parents ban books from the classroom? How can we tell the difference between healthy challenge and damaging challenge? Kelsey and Jonathan explore the buzz around banned and challenged books.
We would love to hear from you. You can send us a message at [email protected]. What current events or cultural issues are you wrestling through with your kids and teens? Let us know. We want to work through it with you.
