Do Republicans want to ban books and decide what your kids can and can’t read?

They want to keep books that have sexual themes out of the hands of elementary school kids in school libraries.
When it comes to sexual themes, the parents are to decide what the kids can and cannot handle. Not the Republican party. Not the Democrat party. Not the federal government. And not the school system. The parents.
If you want to teach your 8 year old what is 69 is, you can still buy the books down at your local bookstore or check them out from the public library. That's on you.
Anytime a government entity takes control of instructing our children what is and isn't acceptable for morality, just like anything else, they tend to mess it up. It's up to the parents to teach their kids right from wrong.
Kids whose ages are in the single digits do not need to know the joys of anal sex, how to give a blowjob, or alternate lifestyles. They need to learn how to read, write, and do math.
In short, the Republican party is not banning books and telling you what your kids can and cannot read. They are insisting that parents have a say in their child's education and have the primary voice in determining what their kid can and cannot read.
Then when the kid becomes an adult they can decide what is the best lifestyle for themselves.
Schools should never be indoctrination or grooming centers.
