Man this argument gets so old it’s always the parents fault like parents are some omnipotent omniscient force able to curate a child’s life like clipping a bonsai.
No; it’s not blame. It’s expecting parents to be parents. If you’re not responsible enough to monitor what your kids are reading/watching, then you’re not responsible enough to be a parent.

It’s not difficult to keep an eye on what your child is reading. You’re running them back and forth to the library already; take 5 fucking seconds and look at what they’re choosing.
But heaven forbid a parent actually be a parent and show any interest in their childs lives.
No, it really isn’t. There’s quite a simple solution that has been known for centuries.
Be an actual parent to your children.
You don’t want your kid reading a book? Fine; don’t let them. Don’t force your bullshit on others.
Ahh yes the common refrain blame the parents.
