I guess when something has been so engrained in you you don't really need logic to defend or understand it.
But having said all this I already can see that this convo is pretty much hopeless.

It's hard to explain, isn't it? We check out EVERY movie our kids watch BEFORE they watch it, either by reading the detailed reviews at www.pluggedinonline.com, or by letting them watch something we've personally previewed.
I'm about as diligent about books at the library. If my oldest daughter wants to look at books in the teen/young adult section, either I pick out a stack for her to peruse, or I walk with her and help her decide which titles to preview.
Is that really so hard? Books can be about as trashy as TV, quite frankly, from content to literary value and everywhere in between.
