This started long ago. My kids went to California public schools in the 1980s because we lived in a place that had no Catholic school (except for a girls’ HS that had had a few problems, shall we say).

My daughters were being presented with books about girls being molested by their drunken fathers and my son was supposed to read books about boys who were gang members.
