    The library I work at has had Moms for Liberty attend several meetings (…) they want us to stop holding some events, including adult focused events about race relations in the Midwest

    Uh, sorry, what the FUCK? They can’t be more obvious than this.

      They were arguing that teens would show up, because we don’t prevent them from attending the event. This would lead to awkward conversations that the MFL group members are not ready to have as parents.

      I don’t know what universe they live in, it’s hard enough to get teens to attend programs that are focused towards them let alone something like this.

        My wife is a library administrator, and getting our teen daughter to go to the library is like pulling teeth. They have a teen room and everything.
