A mom is upset that her first-grader's field trip to the Salt Lake City library got uncomfortable.
In the Salt Lake City Library, computers sit near book shelves in the children's section. That's where one woman says she spotted teens who somehow found porn on Youtube.
She said, "I turn around, see what they're looking at on the computer, and I immediately said, ‘Turn that off.'"
She hoped that her son didnt see what she saw, but he did. "He says, 'Mommy, what was that man doing to that girl on the computer?'" she said.
That woman, who does not want to be identified, says a library official tried to assure her it wouldn't happen again.
"He said, ‘I hope you'll come back with your children to the library.' And I said, ‘Not with my children. I will not bring my children. I won't,'" she said.
Library officials will meet this week to decide if they need to make changes to that section of the building. The woman is hoping for tightened restrictions on the computers in the children's section.
