Can we not get into this all again. At least lets give it a rest for six months or so. It hasn't been that long that our In Boxes were overwhelmed by adult content messages. Or the few of you who insist can discuss it off line.

That's kind of unfair to children who are interested in sex and violence isn't it? Somehow I don't get people who arrogantly insist on imposing their own tastes on other people. How about all of us reading what we like and letting everyone else read what they like and stop trying to suppress the interests of anyone no matter what their age might be.

Hi, I'm probably opening a can of worms here, but I'm not sorry. I think with the amount of children on bookshare for educational purposes as well as pleasure reading, books with sexual descriptions, strong language, and violence should have an adult rating, but based on many prior emails on this, it's obvious that this opinion is not shared with the majority, but I did want to take this opportunity to let my feelings be known about this issue. Thanks and have a blessed day.

Hi Everyone:



Please remind me. Would I mark a book with strong language and violence as
adult? I tend to think yes. What is bookshare's policy?



Thanks.
