You were offended by "Catcher In the Rye"? Or your parents were?
That book was one of my favorite required HS readings. It wasn't
all that long and I identified with the character or something because
I couldn't put the book down and read it in one day. It didn't have all
that much of a plot though.

I remember when I was in high school and required reading was “catcher in the rye” or something like that and it offended me to have to read it in the classroom so I objected. To make this short the school said it was a required reading so read it or take the f.
I left public school and my parents put me in a private Christian school.
Sometimes you cannot beat the system, you have to make a move and take a stand for what you believe is right.
