A Florida Democrat Senator, Tina Polsky, believes that librarians and teachers are more “qualified” than parents when it comes to deciding what books their children should have access to.

Ummm, ma’am? We all know the Democrats want the government to have complete control over our nation’s children, but I’m pretty sure you’re supposed to at least pretend that’s not true. Ya said the quiet part out loud.
Remember just last week when Biden was also very open about how the government wants control of your children? When he said, “There’s no such thing as someone else’s child. Our nation’s children are all our children!” You remember that? Yeah, it’s pretty obvious that these people want to control your kids. And now they aren’t even hiding it. But you know what they say, commies gonna commie.
We have to fight back and protect our kiddos from these commies. Get to school board meetings. Even if you don’t have kids, you have a say too, you’re paying for the public school system. Make your voice heard. I know not everyone is able to homeschool, so make sure you are pushing back and know what your kids are learning/have access to in their schools. Teachers and librarians are not in charge of your kids, you are.

Glad to hear Fla. Democrat Sen. @TinaPolsky has an opinion. She just needs to learn her place in the Constitutional scheme of things when it comes to other’s kids, she has none. The Supreme Court, however, has long recognized that parent’s, not the state, has the Constitutional right to educate their children. In Troxel v. Granville, 530 U.S. 57, 68-69 (2000), the Court explained:
Opinion of O’CONNOR, J.
As this Court explained in Parham:
“[O]ur constitutional system long ago rejected any notion that a child is the mere creature of the State and, on the contrary, asserted that parents generally have the right, coupled with the high duty, to recognize and prepare [their children] for additional obligations …. The law’s concept of the family rests on a presumption that parents possess what a child lacks in maturity, experience, and capacity for judgment required for making life’s difficult decisions. More important, historically it has recognized that natural bonds of affection lead parents to act in the best interests of their children.” 442 U. S., at 602 (alteration in original) (internal quotation marks and citations omitted).
Accordingly, so long as a parent adequately cares for his or her children (i. e., is fit), there will normally be no reason for the State to inject itself into the private realm of the family to further question the ability of that parent to make the best decisions concerning the rearing of that parent’s children. See, e. g., Flores, 507 U. S., at 304.
At p 77, SOUTER, J., concurring in judgment, it states:
We have long recognized that a parent’s interests in the nurture, upbringing, companionship, care, and custody of children are generally protected by the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. See, e. g., Meyer v. Nebraska, 262 U. S. 390, 399, 401 (1923); Pierce v. Society of Sisters, 268 U. S. 510, 535 (1925); Stanley v. Illinois, 405 U. S. 645, 651 (1972); Wisconsin v. Yoder, 406 U. S. 205, 232 (1972); Quilloin v. Walcott, 434 U. S. 246, 255 (1978); Parham v. J. R., 442 U. S. 584, 602 (1979); Santosky v. Kramer, 455 U. S. 745,753 (1982); Washington v. Glucksberg, 521 U. S. 702, 720 (1997). As we first acknowledged in Meyer, the right of parents to “bring up children,” 262 U. S., at 399, and “to control the education of their own” is protected by the Constitution, id., at 401. See also Glucksberg, supra, at 761 (SOUTER, J., concurring in judgment).
