, CHL2601 ASSESSMENT 2 FORUM DISCUSSIONThe Assessment 2 question:
Based on the articles that you have read, reflect on, and provide your own view of the
matter.
Consider the questions below, and then carefully draft your answer.
What is your view on the censorship of children’s literature? In your reflection, consider
the following:
• Why would censorship of children’s literacy be necessary?
• When does censorship of children’s literature becomes an extreme and undesired form
of control?
• Is the role of books and stories not to challenge and to educate?
• Is censorship the only way of dealing with gender and ethnic stereotypes or other
sensitivities in children’s literature?
In my opinion, the censorship of children's literature should be approached with caution.
It is important to consider the age-appropriateness of certain content, but it is equally
important to promote open-mindedness, critical thinking, and the exploration of diverse
perspectives in children's literature. Instead of censoring books, educators and parents
can engage in thoughtful conversations with children about the content they encounter,
helping them to develop the skills to navigate and understand complex or challenging
themes. Ultimately, a balanced approach that values both the protection of young readers
and the promotion of intellectual freedom is essential in addressing the complex issue of
censorship in children's literature.
Censorship of children's literature may be deemed necessary for a variety of reasons. One
reason is to protect young, impressionable minds from potentially harmful or age-
inappropriate content. This could include themes or language that is violent, sexually
explicit, or otherwise inappropriate for their age and developmental stage.
Another reason for censorship could be to ensure that the literature being presented to
children aligns with societal values and norms. This may involve removing or editing
content that could perpetuate harmful stereotypes, discrimination, or bias.
