Censorship does nothing to help students, it only hurts. Censorship prevents students from exploring and seeking their own truths, finding themselves, and becoming critical thinkers. If anything it should be up to parents to decide if their child can or cannot read something. But to completely disallow something for each and every student is harmful and will do nothing productive in our schools.
