ds2 (aged 5 and just started Y1) has come home today with a library book - the children are taken to the library to choose a book once a week
he has come home with a huge hardbacked tome entitled "The Readers Digest Illustrated History of World War II"
I have flicked through it and it is full of photos of tanks, machine guns, people standing outside their bombed-out houses etc
I am FURIOUS
ds1 had this teacher last year and she is excellent, I think very highly of her and am VERY surprised to find that she has allowed this to happen
I really don't want to antagonise her (not only have I liked and respected her for more than a year, she's a bit scary) but I really feel I have to say something!
I have taken the book away from ds2 and told him that is isn't suitable for a 5yo - he is now crying in the living room
AIBU to be really fucked off?
