A generation of young people were forced out of their classrooms, jobs, and social lives, returning home to live with their parents. Now many of these young adults carry the scars of the internal pandemic, with increased anxiety and depression, poor coping, and the uncertainty of how to restart their lives. Parents want to help, but the old rules of advice-giving can clash with the need to respect their child’s autonomy.

Book Bans Have Tripled in the Last Year | Episode 115 | Book News
PEN America has uncovered a disturbing trend in our latest findings: more than 10,000 instances of book bans in U.S. public schools during the 2023-2024 school year, nearly tripling last year's number. These bans predominantly target stories about LGBTQ+ characters, people of color, and books addressing women's sexual experiences or sexual abuse. With this surge driven by new state laws and "parental rights" advocacy groups, PEN America is raising urgent alarms about the chilling impact on students' freedom to read.
