"The night my dad went to jail" children's

So I was in my English class & me & a class mate were on Instagram & we saw this post. The post was about a children story. It was call "The night my dad went to jail" This is just crazy. Why would you want your child to read this?! If that situation would happen to a family, which I hope no family should go through that, but it's the parents duty to tell their children what's going on not a book. This is the type of stuff that would me homeschool my kids, if I had any. I feel like they are trying to expose kids too fast. Let them be kids.

government shutdown

Okay, I really don't have that you at much insight on all this but I think this is just crazy. How can you just shut down the government?! It's our government. It seems  like they are trying to hurt not help us. 800,000 thousand people are out of work as we speak. That's a lot of people! National park and landmarks are closed for business. The people that work for them will not be paid. The house and the senate cant agree on a spending, so they just going to just shut it down? Who knows how long this going to last? A week, a month, a year? The damage that's going to happen because of this isn't worth a shut down of the government because they are bumping heads.
