AIBU?
AIBU I need thinking schools needs to invest in new reading books?

Pervy vicar watching the girls changing in the changing room (see picture) this book is from 1994 surely they should of added new books instead of these outdated offerings.
Obviously I’m not going to say anything to school but it’s a bit weird...

Am I being unreasonable?

Do you think they haven't thought of this?
Go on, say something to the school.
Where's the money coming from?

I think the Vicar is actually trans so is allowed in the girls changing room now 😜
Seriously though, why not volunteer to help the school edit their reading books? And then help fund raise for new ones. My school have edited all our reading books over lockdown and spend over £5K on new books. We lose on average 2 books a week - I say lose, I mean they don’t get returned - and it’s nigh on impossible to keep on top of it.

I raised in early Year 3 when the books my eldest was getting were unrelenting misery. Kid with cancer who’s had to go abroad for treatment leaving his mum behind, girl in post-climate-apocalypse dystopia, family fleeing the Vietnam war and half the people on the boat died on the journey… It was turning him off reading. It turned out they were short on books for the more advanced readers so had been dipping into the higher years/reserve stock without checking what the books were actually about. They were a bit mortified when they realised and were able to make changes.
