Last week, a California school banned copies of the Merriam-Webster dictionary after parents complained of an entry defining oral sex. While the school has since reinstated the dictionary, children must have permission slips signed by their guardians to use it.
The dictionary contains multiple entries which any number of people might find offensive. Is the school right in originally banning the dictionary and then treating it like the Satanic Bible, or have the parents in this town gone a little overboard?
