I know that I know what you mean about different ages for children. But just a minute when I used to get talking books they would say some explicet discriptions of sex or total explecit discriptions some strong language or strong language, now if they do that that is all I meant I didn't know if things were or were not marked like this I know if I don't like something I stop reading it they do it in talking books what would be so wrong with that that wouldn't be telling a person what and what not to read nor would it be keeping your child from reading whatever they choose to read adult or not that wouldn't stop anything it would just give us who wish it something to go by that is all I meant. I don't care what you read or your kids and so on read that is your call ----- Original Message ----- From: Mike and Lori Castner To: bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, September 08, 2009 7:50 PM Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: I have a question please and thank you. Hi Gwen, Even if a book does not have adult content, that doesn't mean it is fit material for a six-year-old child. You probably already know that different children's books are designed for children of different ages. As for your own personal reading, if you find a book that doesn't suit your taste or your sense of right and wrong: it is up to you to stop reading the book. Don't depend on the people from bookshare or your local library to determine which books are suitable for you, because they can't do that.

But I still have a further question. Please don't misunderstand me. I am not! saying this is right or wrong nor telling anyone what is good or not good to read That I want to make clear right off the bat. But my husband and I read totally different books thus scan totally different books. His books that he scans and reads not saying they all do again don't misunderstand, but I know for a fact that this every wish fullfilled that he just got put up it has explicit descriptions and language but I can find it in my books even though I've said I want no adult content what if a minor got hold of this book it says no adult content so going by that anyone can read this book including my grand kids who are pre schoolers and stuff. What determines adult content I'm not saying it's good or bad but I'll be doggone if I want to go into a book and find things I don't want to unexpected, most of y'all this is not gonna care or make sense to but does anybody get where I'm coming from? ----- Original Message ----- From: Lynn I To: bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, September 08, 2009 1:50 PM Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: I have a question please and thank you. Hi Gwen! It means that you will not see books labeled "adult content". Blessings.

If I go up and make sure my settings are set to no adult content, does that mean when I go into the new books or brose any category that only books with only no adult content will come up or will other books slip through? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ No virus found in this incoming message.
