[quote=Anonymous]My 10-year-old is obsessed with the dork diaries book series, and I very naïvely thought it was appropriate material just based on the look of the covers. I’ve noticed a dramatic change in her behavior like being mean to her brother and using rude language. I chalked it up to her preteen early puberty stage, but I took a look at the latest book she was reading and now I see she’s getting it from this book series! She’s a voracious reader and she will have a meltdown if she cannot read these books anymore. How is the best way to handle? Ban the books entirely or make her realize how shallow and inappropriate the content is but let her read them? Anyone else who has dealt with this specific issue (censoring what your child reads), please help me out here! She already has very limited screen time and access to pop culture, doesn’t have a phone, so reading is really her daily pleasure. [/quote]
