[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Significant trauma aside, I would have my DC read it. I would also read the book to form my own opinion. Then, I’d suggest DC and I discuss it together. This allows me to explain what I think and ask DC about their thoughts or beliefs and why that’s the case. Because a teen’s task - as a growing adult - is to learn and explore what they believe. I wouldn’t declare to DC that they can’t read a book without having read it myself. That would not be a helpful way to make or model informed decision making. [/quote] I really can’t read it. That subject matter will make me so upset I wouldn’t be able to work or lsleeo well for a long time. I just don’t have the emotional bandwidth for that. I’ve read other books on the same topic (death penalty and wrongful convictions) but cannot read anything about torture of children. I do feel bad telling her she has to read something I know I wouldn’t be able to read. [/quote]
